---|---|---|---|
5 | 2 | 1 | 2 |
2 | 0 | 3 | 3 |
Product of all Prime Factors | 25 | 40 | 200 |
Least Common Multiple:
200
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 = 8
Right_M = L.C.M / R_Deno = 5
Making Equivalent Fractions :
5.3 Rewrite the two fractions into equivalent fractions
Two fractions are called equivalent if they have the same numeric value.
For example : 1/2 and 2/4 are equivalent, y/(y+1)2 and (y2+y)/(y+1)3 are equivalent as well.
To calculate equivalent fraction , multiply the Numerator of each fraction, by its respective Multiplier.
L. Mult. • L. Num. 92 • 8 —————————————————— = —————— L.C.M 200 R. Mult. • R. Num. 199 • 5 —————————————————— = ——————— L.C.M 200
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:
92 • 8 + 199 • 5 1731
———————————————— = ————
