13/21 of his homework

To add fractions, you first have to set the denominators equal to each other. To do this, you find the LCD (least common denominator) of the two fractions until you find a shared number.

To do this, list out the multiples of each number (3x1=3,3x2=6,3x3=9, and so on. Do this also with 7) The LCD for 3 and 7 is 21. 3x7=21, and 7x3=21. You want to set each fraction’s denominator equal to 21.

You want to multiply each side of 1/3 by 7. 1/3 would become 7/21. You’d do this because 3x7=21, and what you multiply the bottom by you need to multiply the top by. 7x3=21 so you multiply both sides by 3 to get 6/21.

Now you have 7/21 and 6/21 and can add them. Now that they are equal, you can ignore the denominator and just add the numerators. 7+6=13 so Eric completed 13/21 of his homework.

Hope this helps!

Numbers that are greater than 5 and less than 5.75
Goshia [24]
The easy way to think about this is what number comes between 5 and 7? The answer is 6 (but we have to consider that it's negative in this case.) So the answer is -6 Another way to look at it is with a number line (not to "Which number is greater than -7 and less than -5"? scale.)<===(-7)==(-6)==(-5)==(-3)==(-2)==(-1)==(0)==(1)==>Notice how -6 comes between the two numbers. -6 is larger than -7 (it's "less negative" -- "Which number is greater than -7 and less than -5"? closer to zero) -6 is less than -5 (it's "more negative" -- further away from zero)
