How do you add a negative fraction to a mixed fraction?
To add a negative fraction to a mixed fraction, first convert the mixed fraction to an improper fraction. Then, find a common denominator for both fractions. Next, add the numerators and keep the common denominator. Finally, simplify the resulting fraction if needed. If the negative fraction has a smaller absolute value than the mixed fraction, you may need to borrow or regroup to ensure proper subtraction.
What are some strategies on how to divide a fraction by another fraction?
Basically you only need one strategy. To divide a fraction (or a whole number, or a decimal) by a fraction, you multiply the first number by the reciprocal of the second number. For example, 1/3 divided by 2/5 is the same as 1/3 multiplied by 5/2. For a proper fraction (such as 2/5) or an improper fraction (such as 7/4), to get the reciprocal you just exchange numerator and denominator. For a mixed fraction (such as 3 1/4), you convert the mixed fraction into an improper fraction first.
