If their denominators are different then find their lowest common denominator by means of their lowest common multiple remembering to adjust their numerators accordingly before adding or subtracting.
3 1/2=3 3/6=2 6/6+1 5/6=1 1/6 is the final answer - 1 5/6=1 5/6
Same as for addition. Mainly, you have to convert the fractions to equivalent fractions that have the same denominator. After that, it is easy: just subtract the numerators and put the result on top of the common denominator.
similar fraction is the same denominator and dissimilar fraction is cannot the same denominators
A dissimilar fraction is a fraction where the denominator is not the same as the others .
Dissimilar fractions are fractions that have different denominators.
For adding or substracting fractions first of all we should calculate the LCM( Lowest Common Multiplier) of the denominators in both of the fractions.
Dissimilar fractions may or may not be proper fractions.
Dissimilar fractions have different denominators.
If their denominators are different then find their lowest common denominator by means of their lowest common multiple remembering to adjust their numerators accordingly before adding or subtracting.
3 1/2=3 3/6=2 6/6+1 5/6=1 1/6 is the final answer - 1 5/6=1 5/6
first u find a common denominator
Used for adding dissimilar fractions
The meaning of dissimilar fractions is when there is a pair or more of fractions that don't have the same denominator.
You can compare similar fractions by looking at their numerators. You can compare dissimilar fractions by converting them to similar fractions and looking at their numerators. You can convert a dissimilar fraction to a similar fraction by finding the least common denominator.
Dissimilar fractions are fractions whose denominators are not the same. for example 3/8 and 1/2, their denominators are 8 and 2.
They are fractions that have different denominators as for instance 3/4 and 5/8 are dissimilar fractions.
