Write a program that lets the user perform arithmetic operations on fractions. Fractions are of the form a/b, in which a and b a

re integers and b is not equal to 0. Your program must be menu driven, allowing the user to select the operation ( , -, *, or /) and input the numerator and the denominator of each fraction. Furthermore, your program must consist of at least the following function
menu: This function informs the user about the program's purpose, explains how to enter data, how to quit and allows the user to select the operation.
addFractions: This function takes as input four integers representing the numerators and denominators of two fractions, adds the fractions, and returns the numerator and denominator of the result.
subtractFractions: This function takes as input four integers representing the numerators and denominators of two fractions, subtracts the fractions, and returns the numerator and denominator of the result.
multiplyFractions: This function takes as input four integers representing the numerators and denominators of two fractions, multiplies the fractions, and returns the numerator and denominator of the result.
divideFractions: This function takes as input four integers representing the numerators and denominators of two fractions, divides the fractions, and returns the numerator and denominator of the result.

Here are some sample outputs of the program:

3 / 4 +2 / 5 = 23 / 20
2 / 3 * 3 / 5 = 2 / 5

Answer:

Explanation:

The following code is written in Java, It asks the user to enter the numerator and denominator for both fraction 1 and 2. Then it prompts the user with a menu to choose the desired operation. The choice is passed into a switch statement and calls the correct function.

import java.util.Scanner;

class Brainly {

   public static void main(String[] args) {

       Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);

       int num1, num2, den1, den2;

       System.out.println("Enter numerator for fraction 1: ");

       num1 = in.nextInt();

       System.out.println("Enter denominator for fraction 1: ");

       den1 = in.nextInt();

       System.out.println("Enter numerator for fraction 2: ");

       num2 = in.nextInt();

       System.out.println("Enter denominator for fraction 2: ");

       den2 = in.nextInt();

       System.out.println("Menu:");

       System.out.println("+ = add fractions");

       System.out.println("- = subtract fractions");

       System.out.println("/ = divide fractions");

       System.out.println("* = multiply fractions");

       String answer = in.next();

       switch (answer.charAt(0)) {

           case '+': add(num1, den1, num2, den2); break;

           case '-': subtract(num1, den1, num2, den2); break;

           case '*': multiply(num1, den1, num2, den2); break;

           case '/': divide(num1, den1, num2, den2); break;

       }

   }

   public static void add(int num1, int den1, int num2, int den2) {

       int num3 = (num1 * den2) + (num2 * den1);

       int den3 = den1 * den2;

       System.out.println("New Fraction: " + num3 + " / " + den3);

   }

   public static void subtract(int num1, int den1, int num2, int den2) {

       int num3 = (num1 * den2) - (num2 * den1);

       int den3 = den1 * den2;

       System.out.println("New Fraction: " + num3 + " / " + den3);

   }

   public static void divide(int num1, int den1, int num2, int den2) {

       int num3 = num1 * den2;

       int den3 = den1 * num2;

       System.out.println("New Fraction: " + num3 + " / " + den3);

   }

   public static void multiply(int num1, int den1, int num2, int den2) {

       int num3 = num1 * num2;

       int den3 = den1 * den2;

       System.out.println("New Fraction: " + num3 + " / " + den3);

   }

}

Ineffective and barriers to communication are problems that make communication unclear. Workplace communication is at work or at a job. This is not a job newsletter for workers, but for people at home.

All websites with medical information should be considered credible.
larisa [96]
No, this is not true. WebMD is a great example asking you of simple symptoms that you may be facing and your results could present an apparent fatal disease. This constantly scares the population of netizens whenever they would want a quick diagnosis online through these medical information sites. The best solution to your symptoms is to visit your family doctor or a licensed physician who will give you proper diagnosis checking your vital signs and other related information. Do not always trust the internet and the information it gives you as a user you must take the information with discretion before reacting inappropriately.

I think there's a typo in the question, otherwise they probably meant a 'she', since the name is Maureen.

Also, the answer is Personal hygiene and grooming.
