Step 3 :
Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :
3.1 Adding a fraction to a whole
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 2 as the denominator :
6 6 • 2
6 = — = —————
1 2
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 :
3.2 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:
6 • 2 + 7 19
————————— = ——
2 2
Equation at the end of step 3 :
19 7
(—— + 6) + —
