What else can I help you with?
What is true when the numerator and denominator of the fractions equal?
That it is equal to 1/1 which is 1
Is five fifths a improper fraction?
No, five fifths is not an improper fraction. An improper fraction is a fraction where the numerator is greater than or equal to the denominator. In the case of five fifths, the numerator (5) is equal to the denominator (5), making it a proper fraction. Improper fractions have numerators that are greater than the denominators, such as 7/5 or 11/3.
How can you tell if two fractions are equivalent?
Two fractions are equivalent if the fully simplified fractions are equal. If you can multiply the fraction with the smaller numerator and denominator by the same value to equal the second fraction. For example the fractions 3/4 and 9/12. The nominator and denominator, 3 and 4 have both been multiplied by 3 to equal 9/12. Cross multiply. If the products are equal, the fractions are equal. Cross multiplying means to multiply each numerator of one fraction with the denominator of the other fraction.
When does the sum of two fractions equal one?
The sum of two fractions will be equal to one when the numerator and the denominator of their sum are the same. Example: 1/3 + 2/3 = 3/3 or 1
What fractions whose value is greater than or equal to 1 called?
Fractions that are greater than one are known as improper or 'top-heavy' fractions as the numerator is greater than the denominator.
Can a fraction with the same numerator and different denomenator be equal?
No, a fraction with the same numerator but different denominators cannot be equal. The value of a fraction is determined by the ratio of the numerator to the denominator, so if the denominators are different, the fractions will represent different values. For example, ( \frac{1}{2} ) is not equal to ( \frac{1}{3} ) despite having the same numerator.
How do you add two fractions with a different denominator?
You add two fractions with a different denominator by multiplying the denominators by a number that will make them equal. Be sure to multiply the numerator by that number too.
What do you notice when the denominators in two fractions are the same?
You can represent the two fractions with one fraction with a numerator equal to the sum of the two individual numerators (with sign) and a denominator equal to just one of the two denominators.
What are fractions that are equal in value but may have different numerators and denominators?
Equivalent fractions.
What are fractions that are equal in value but have different numerators and denominators?
They are known as equivalent fractions
How do you know when two fractions are equal?
If the denominators (bottom numbers) are not equal, making equivalent fractions of them so that the denominators are equal. With the denominators equal if the numerators (top numbers) are equal, then the fractions are equal.
Fractioins that are equal in value but may have different numerators and denominators?
equal fractions
How are unit fractions alike how are they different?
Unit fractions are alike in that they all have a numerator of one, representing a single part of a whole divided into equal segments. They differ in their denominators, which indicate the number of equal parts the whole is divided into; for example, ( \frac{1}{2} ) represents one part of two, while ( \frac{1}{4} ) represents one part of four. This difference in denominators affects their size and value, with smaller denominators yielding larger fractions.
When you add or subtract fractions with unlike denominators why do you have to find LCM?
Because to add fractions, the denominators must be equal.
What are the rules for subtracting fractions?
You multiply the fractions until the denominators are equal. Then, you subtract.
Is eight tenths greater than six tenths?
Yes. Look at the denominator (10). If the denominators of both fractions are equal than go with the higher numerator as the greater number
What fractions will equal to 1?
Fractions will always equal 1 when their numerator is the same as their denominator
