What is the rule for subtracting fractions?
First, change it so that the two fractions have the same denominator (by changing the fractions into equivalent fractions). Once the two fractions have the same denominator, it is simply a case of subtracting the numerators, leaving the denominator the same. Finally, reduce the fraction to its lowest terms (if possible).
When is the product of two fractions less than its factors?
If the fractions are both proper fractions ... equivalent to less than 1 ... thenthat's always true ... the product is always less than either factor.
Is the product of two denominators always a common denominator?
Only if you have just two fractions.
What is one whole minus two tens in fractions?
8/10, which can reduce to 4/5
Why it is important to know how to find the greatest common division of two numbers?
It helps to reduce fractions.
How can you tell whether two fractions that look differentrepresent the same number?
Reduce them to their lowest terms
When your multiplying fractions do you always have to flip the numbers over?
No, you do not always have to flip the numbers when multiplying fractions. When multiplying two fractions, you simply multiply the numerators together and the denominators together. Flipping the numbers, or taking the reciprocal, is only necessary when dividing fractions, not when multiplying them.
How do you determine whether ratios are proportional?
you divide the numerator by the denominator, if you get the same to the other fractions, it is proportional. Another solution is if you reduce the two fractions to simplest form and they are the same, they are also proportional.
What is 5 over 12 in unlike and like fractions?
Like and unlike fractions only make sense when you have two [or more] fractions. One fraction, such as 5/12, is always like itself.
What are the two fractions?
There is no such thing as THE two fractions. There are infinitely many fractions.
How do you multiply two proper fractions?
You multiply the numerator not the denomanater because the demomenator will always be the same.
How do you add or subtract dissimilar fractions?
You first convert them to similar fractions, i.e., to fractions that have the same denominator.* Step one: find a common denominator.* Step two: convert both fractions to equivalent fractions that have that denominator.
