5/6 + 1/4. steps involved : find a common denominator. Make both fractions have that denominator by converting them. Add fractions. Turn to mixed numbers if necessary.
I dont know what to put foe reasoning other then that you can't add/subtract fractions unless they have the same denominator. ================ 3/4 - 2/3
steps involved: find the common denominator to both fractions. Convert both fractions so they have the same denominator. Subtract them.
with multiplication / division of fractions, common denominators are not necessary =================== (3/8) / (3/4) = 3/8 * 4/3 = 12/24 reduces to 1/2
when dividing with fractions, u flip what u r dividing by, then multiply
You scale down by simplifying the fraction of 12/48. You would divide both 12 and 48 by 12, since it is the highest divisor. And once you divide the two you get 1/4.
