Step 5 :
Calculating the Least Common Multiple :
5.1 Find the Least Common Multiple
The left denominator is : 5
The right denominator is : 10
Prime Factor | Left Denominator | Right Denominator | L.C.M = Max {Left,Right} |
---|---|---|---|
5 | 1 | 1 | 1 |
2 | 0 | 1 | 1 |
Product of all Prime Factors | 5 | 10 | 10 |
Least Common Multiple:
10
Calculating Multipliers :
5.2 Calculate multipliers for the two fractions
Denote the Least Common Multiple by L.C.M
Denote the Left Multiplier by Left_M
Denote the Right Multiplier by Right_M
Denote the Left Deniminator by L_Deno
Denote the Right Multiplier by R_Deno
Left_M = L.C.M / L_Deno = 2
Right_M = L.C.M / R_Deno = 1
Making Equivalent Fractions :
5.3 Rewrite the two fractions into equivalent fractions
L. Mult. • L. Num. 49 • 2 —————————————————— = —————— L.C.M 10 R. Mult. • R. Num. 47 —————————————————— = —— L.C.M 10
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
5.4 Adding up the two equivalent fractions
Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator
Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:
49 • 2 - (47) 51
————————————— = ——
10 10
Final result :
51
—— = 5.10000
