A fraction is in the simplest form when its numerator and denominator have no common factors. The fractions have a numerator (the top number) and the denominator (the bottom number). The Conversion of a Fraction into its Smallest and Simplest Form are discussed in the below section. Let us discuss in detail about Conversion of …
Subtraction of Mixed Fractions: The operation of subtracting mixed fractions is similar to the addition of mixed fractions. So, the students who have knowledge of the addition of mixed fractions can easily solve the subtraction of mixed fractions. There are different methods to find the subtraction of mixed fractions. We will discuss how to subtract …
Fractions in Descending Order: Fractions represent equal parts of the whole number. It contains a numerator and denominator. Ordering fractions is nothing but arranging the fractions in descending order that is from bigger numbers to smaller numbers. Know the methods on how to arrange the fractions in descending order and along with ordering fractions in …
Reciprocal of a Fraction – The reciprocal of a fraction is nothing interchanging or switching the numerator and denominator. That means numerator becomes denominator and denominator becomes the numerator. In the case of a mixed fraction, you have to convert the mixed fraction to the improper fraction and then switch the numerator and denominator (top …
Reducing the Equivalent Fractions: In order to reduce the fraction to the lowest terms, we have to divide the numerator and denominator with the same number. Firstly, students must know what is meant by an equivalent fraction from here. Here we will discuss reducing the equivalent fractions to the lowest terms in which the numerator …
Addition of Unlike Fractions: If the denominators or bottom number of the fractions are not the same then it is known as, unlike fraction. Here you can gain more knowledge about adding fractions with unlike denominators. In order to make the denominators common, we have to find the least common multiples of the denominators. Students …
Fraction as Decimal: A decimal number is a non-whole number where a decimal point is followed by digits that represent a value that is smaller than one. A fraction is a number that is divided into two parts numerator and denominator which is less than 1. Students will learn the conversion of fractions as Decimal …
Subtraction of Unlike Fractions: Subtraction is one of the arithmetic operations which is used to take off the required number from the given number. To subtract the unlike fractions you have to make the denominators equal. Students feel that fractions are the difficult top among all. But if you understand the concept this will be …
Subtraction of Unlike Fractions | How to Subtract Fractions with Different Denominators? Read More »
Subtraction of Fractions having the Same Denominator is similar to the concept of subtraction of like fractions. In subtraction of fractions with the same denominators, you must subtract the numerator of the fractions and then write the bottom number or denominator. In order to subtract the like fractions, we have to subtract the smaller numerator …
Conversion of Fractions to Common Denominator is explained briefly on this page. In order to add or subtract the fractions, the fractions must have a common denominator. The denominator is the bottom number in a fraction. Common Denominator is nothing but the fractions having the same number. The fractions having the same denominator are called …
