How do you compare fractions with like denominators?
Fractions with like denominators: 1. the larger the numerator, the greater is its value. 2. the smaller the numerator, the lesser is its value. Examples. 3/5 > 2/5 1/4 < 2/4
What are the like fraction?
Like fractions are fractions with the same denominators.
When fractions have like denominators the larger the what the larger the fraction?
When you have fractions with like denominators, the larger is the one with the larger numerator.
What the difference between like and unlike fraction?
fractions having same denominators are like fractions & others are unlike fractions
How is adding like fractions and adding unlike fractions the same?
If the denominators are not the same, then you have to use equivalent fractions which do have a common denominator . To do this, you need to find the least common multiple (LCM) of the two denominators. To add fractions with unlike denominators, rename the fractions with a common denominator. Then add and simplify.
What is big 2 fourths or 1 fourths?
2/4 is greater than 1/4. When you compare fractions with like denominators, the greater numerator is the greater number.
Why are two fractions converted into like fractions?
Because you can't add or subtract fractions that have different denominators. Making them like fractions, by multiplying so the denominators are the same, you can add and/or subtract them.
Explain how comparing fractions with like denominators differs from comparing fractions with unlike denominators?
Because when you compare fractions with the same denominators, you do not have to find the least common denominator (LCM or LCD).
When adding fractions with like denominators how do you convert?
When adding fractions with like denominators, add the numerators together and put the result over the denominator. Simplify if possible.
What way is subracting fractions with unlike denominators like adding fractions with unlike denominators?
If the denominators are not the same, then you have to use equivalent fractions which do have a common denominator . To do this, you need to find the least common multiple (LCM) of the two denominators.
How can you tell a fraction is greater than another?
Two ways: If they're unlike fractions, convert them to like fractions with a common denominator and compare numerators. Convert them to decimals by dividing their denominators into their numerators and see which is greater.
When you are multiplying fractions do you need like denominators?
No.
