Adding Fractions with 10s and Hundreds Denominators

This video tutorial teaches how to add fractions with tenths and hundredths denominators using equations. It covers the basic concepts of fractions, including numerators and denominators, and explains how to find equivalent fractions. The tutorial provides step-by-step instructions for adding fractions with different denominators by converting them to a common denominator. Example problems are solved to demonstrate the process, and the importance of verifying the results is emphasized. The lesson concludes with a summary of the key points covered.

What is the role of the numerator in a fraction?

• It is used to find the least common multiple.

• It is always larger than the denominator.

• It represents the part of the whole.

• It represents the whole.

How do you make tenths equivalent to hundredths when adding fractions?

• By adding 10 to the numerator.

• By multiplying both the numerator and denominator by 10.

• By subtracting 10 from the denominator.

• By dividing the numerator by 10.

In the example of adding 3/10 and 4/100, what is the resulting fraction?

• 4/10

• 7/10

• 31/100

• 34/100

What is the sum of 7/10 and 1/100 when converted to have a common denominator?

• 1/10

• 7/100

• 70/100

• 71/100

Why is it important to check your work when adding fractions?

• To ensure the fractions are in simplest form.

• To verify that the denominators are different.

• To confirm the accuracy of the result.

• To make sure the numerators are equal.
