For eg: 2/4+6/3 take the LCM of the denominators i.e 4 and 3 LCM is 12 So devide 12 by Denominator(4) and multiply the answer with numerator(2) ans is 6 devide 12 by Denominator(3) and multiply the answer with numerator(6) ans is 24 so (6+24)/12 =30/12 = 5/2 or 2.5

1/2 + 1/4 = LCM of 2 And 4 is 4. 4 is the common denominator. 4 divided by 2 is 2 and multiply by numerator ie 1. answer is 2 . similarly 4 divided by 4 is 1 , multiply by numerator ie 1, answer is 1. add the numerators 1+1 =2. answer is 3/4

When you add fractions with unlike denominators , you first need to take the Least common multiple of both denominators. having done that , you then write the equivalent fraction for each of them with the new denominators . As the denominators are same for both fractions , add just as you would for like...

There are two ways. One I am telling you.. Take L.C M of denominators. Divide the LCM by the numerator, you will get quotient. Multiply this quotient by the numerator. The answer you will get is the numerator and LCM figure will be the new denominator. Repeat the same for second fraction. Add...
