Step 3 :
Calculating the Least Common Multiple :
3.1 Find the Least Common Multiple
The left denominator is : 25
The right denominator is : 20
| Prime Factor | Left Denominator | Right Denominator | L.C.M = Max {Left,Right} |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5 | 2 | 1 | 2 |
| 2 | 0 | 2 | 2 |
| Product of all Prime Factors | 25 | 20 | 100 |
Least Common Multiple:
100
Calculating Multipliers :
3.2 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 = 4
Right_M = L.C.M / R_Deno = 5
Making Equivalent Fractions :
3.3 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. 137 • 4 —————————————————— = ——————— L.C.M 100 R. Mult. • R. Num. 529 • 5 —————————————————— = ——————— L.C.M 100
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
3.4 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:
137 • 4 + 529 • 5 3193
————————————————— = ————
100 100
Equation at the end of step 3 :
3193
———— + 4
100
Step 4 :
Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :
4.1 Adding a whole to a fraction
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 100 as the denominator :
4 4 • 100
4 = — = ———————
1 100
Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole
Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
4.2 Adding up the two equivalent fractions
3193 + 4 • 100 3593
—————————————— = ————
100 100
Final result :
3593
———— = 35.93000
100
