Answer:

<em><u>Equal denominators/common denominators</u></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to have equal denominators. If you do not, then you have to multiply the denominators against each other as well as multiplying the same number to the numerator. If a number is a factor of one of the numbers then multiply the number by its other factor so as to get the same number.

<em><u>Ex. 1</u></em>

<em><u>First one explained:</u></em>

2/3 + 4/5

1/3 * 5/5 = 5/15

2/5 * 3/3 = 6/15

5/15 + 6/15 = 11/15

<em><u></u></em>

<h2><em><u>Common denominator = 15</u></em></h2>

<em><u>Ex. 2</u></em>

<em><u>Second one explained:</u></em>

2/8 + 1/4

2/8 + 1/4*2/2 = 2/8 + 2/8

= 4/8

<h2><em><u>Common Denominator = 8</u></em></h2>

Hope this helped,

Balu and Pumba shared 2/3 of a cake. Balu got to eat three times as much cake as Pumba. What fraction of the whole cake did Balu
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

In fraction, Balu ate 1/2 of the whole cake

Step-by-step explanation:

Balu and Pumba shared 2/3 of a cake.

Balu eats three times as much cake as Pumba.

So let's take the 2/3 they shared as a whole.

Let's Balu share be x

And pumbs share be y

X = 3y

But x + 3y = 2/3

Since x = 3y

Y = x/3

x + x/3 = 2/3

4x/3 = 2/3

X = (2*3)/(4*3)

X = 2/4

X = 1/2

Balu ate half of the whole cake

In fraction, Balu ate 1/2 of the whole cake
