When the sum of 2 fraction is 1 if one of the fraction is 38 greater than the other what are the 2 fractions?
The two fractions are -181/2 and 191/2.
What is true about the numerators of two like fractions with a sum of 1?
That their sum is always equal to the denominator.
When you estimate the sum of 2 fractions the estimate is never a whole number?
The sum of two fractions will only be a whole number if the fractions have a common denominator. When the denominators are different, the sum will be a fraction with a different denominator, making it impossible to be a whole number. Thus, estimating the sum of two fractions will generally result in a fraction, not a whole number.
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.
Can you always find another fraction in between two fractions and why?
Yes. The set of rational numbers is infinitely dense.If p/q and r/s are any two fractions then (p/q + r/s)/2 is a fraction which is between the two.
