6th gade..loser
go to hell oc97
Just ignore them what's your fraction problem
IF YOUR GONNA TALK TO ME YOUR GONNA TALK TO ME WITH SENSE
is hell fun?
i can help
Do you have a problem with fractions that I can help you with or not?
i thought i typed it sorry ill retype
I HAVE TWO THIRDS PLUS FIVE SIXTHS AND I GOTTA SHOW ALL MY WORK
ok so does it look like this: 2/3+5/6
yes
Ok so first you have to find a common denominator. what is something that both 3 and 6 go into evenly?
ummmmm 18
Ok or even more simply your common denominator could be 6 3*2=6 6*1=6 so your common denominator will be 6
so now you can add them
so in order to get a common denominator you have to do the same thing to the top as you do to the bottom of your fraction. Because 5/6 already has 6 as the common denominator you can leave that fraction alone.
we have to change it to a mixed numba
Now take 2/3 3*2=6 2*2=4 your fraction should now look like this 4/6
huh? u lost me sorry
Your equation looks like this now: 4/6+5/6 simply add the numerators together 4+5=9/6
YOu can simplify this by asking how many times six goes into nine and how much is left over. 6 goes into 9 once. 1 (3/6) or 1(1/2)
so either 9/6 or 1(1/2) is your answer
how does it become 4/6 thts my only other q
Ok so i2/3=4/6 because in order to have a comomon denominator, which is 6, I have to multiply both the bottom and the top by the same number. so to get 3 to 6 I have to multiply 3*2 You have to do the same thing to the top of the fraction 2*2=4 so now your fraction is 4/6
ok i get it
You sure?
WAIT WE HAVE TO CHANGE IT TO A MIXED NUMBER NO IMPROPER FRACTIONS
right that's this step.... YOu can simplify this by asking how many times six goes into nine and how much is left over. 6 goes into 9 once and you have 3 left over. 1 (3/6) 3/6=1/2 your final answer is: 1(1/2)
is tht the only problem you can help me on
I can help you on another one real quick if you would like
ok cause its homework u know
That's ok I do online school so I ask a lot of questions too... As long as you understand what you are doing
2/3-1/6 and 4/7-1/2 well i understand better now so itll probally go along faster
ok are these two separate questions?
maybe....
Well on your hw is 2/3-1/6 a different problem than 4/7-1/2?
yes yes yes yes yes yes i basically have the whole sheet to do yes yes yes
Ok sorry just checking cause I don't want to give you a wrong answer due to not having a problem written down correctly
Ok so let's start with 2/3-1/6 Find the common denominator
its 6
good job so what do you have to multiply 3 by to get 6 as a common denominator
2
Right and whatever you do to the bottom you have to do to the top so multiply 2 by 2 as well and what does 2/3=?
the answer is 2/6
isnt it
no... so you multiplied 3*2=6 for you denominator now you have to multiply the numerator by 2 as well so that your fraction is correct. 2*2=4 so 2/3=4/6
If you multiply the bottom of a fraction you ave to multiply by the exact same number to the top of the fraction
right then I did the 1/6 and got 2/6 then 4/6-2/6=2/6
Ok well -1/6 already has 6 as the denominator so you actually don't have to worry about that particular fraction
but dont u still have to times it
your problem should look like this now: 4/6-1/6=? simply do the subtraction across the top. your answer should be 3/6 you can simplify this because you know 3 is 1/2 of 6 so your answer is 1/2
No because the only reason we did it to the other fraction was to make it have the same denominator as -1/6 because both 3 and 6 can go into 6
its 1/2
Yep good job sorry I had to go do something really fast ok do you need help on the second problem still?
