How do you add fractions with the same denominator?

Back

To add fractions with the same denominator, keep the denominator the same and add the numerators. For example, 1/4 + 2/4 = (1+2)/4 = 3/4.

How do you subtract fractions with the same denominator?

Back

To subtract fractions with the same denominator, keep the denominator the same and subtract the numerators. For example, 3/5 - 1/5 = (3-1)/5 = 2/5.

How do you convert an improper fraction to a mixed number?

Back

To convert an improper fraction to a mixed number, divide the numerator by the denominator. The quotient is the whole number, and the remainder becomes the new numerator over the original denominator.

Front

What is the least common multiple (LCM)?

Back

The least common multiple (LCM) of two or more numbers is the smallest multiple that is evenly divisible by all the numbers. For example, the LCM of 4 and 5 is 20.

Front

What is the greatest common factor (GCF)?

Back

The greatest common factor (GCF) of two or more numbers is the largest number that divides all of them without leaving a remainder. For example, the GCF of 8 and 12 is 4.

Front

How do you multiply fractions?

Back

To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together and the denominators together. For example, 1/2 * 3/4 = (1*3)/(2*4) = 3/8.
