Make the lower number the same

- so 3 / 5 = 12 / 20

then 17 - 12 = 5

so answer is 5 / 20

which = 1 / 4

How do you simplify the complex fraction 1 over 4 plus 3 over 5 divided by 1 over 2 plus 1 over 5?

1/4 + 3/5//1/2 + 1/5 attack the numerator and denominator separately by adding the fractions. Need like denominators. numerator first, 20 looks good 5*1/5*4 + 4*3/4*5 5/20 + 12/20 = 17/20 -------------------your numerator Now, the denominator. 10 looks good 5*1/5*2 + 2*1/2*5 5/10 + 2/10 = 7/10 --------------your denominator now, 17/20//7/10 same as saying 17/20 * 10/7 = 170/140 reduces to, ( of course ) 17/14 ---------------
