Step 3 :
Calculating the Least Common Multiple :
3.1 Find the Least Common Multiple
The left denominator is : 50
The right denominator is : 5
Prime Factor | Left Denominator | Right Denominator | L.C.M = Max {Left,Right} |
---|---|---|---|
2 | 1 | 0 | 1 |
5 | 2 | 1 | 2 |
Product of all Prime Factors | 50 | 5 | 50 |
Least Common Multiple:
50
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 = 1
Right_M = L.C.M / R_Deno = 10
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. 4163 —————————————————— = ———— L.C.M 50 R. Mult. • R. Num. 8 • 10 —————————————————— = —————— L.C.M 50
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:
4163 - (8 • 10) 4083
——————————————— = ————
50 50
Final result :
4083
———— = 81.66000
