When you are adding fractions do you just add across?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

not unless you have a common denominator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It depends....on what is given.....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

20/27 + 1/45 + 7/10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

here you have to find LCD....

OpenStudy (hoblos):

the lcd is 270

OpenStudy (anonymous):

First find LCD Then convert all fraction to like fractions with same denominator Finally add al the numerators and put them over the common denominator Simplify if you can.....

OpenStudy (hoblos):

=395/270

OpenStudy (amistre64):

20/27 + 1/45 + 7/10 = N 20(10)/27 + 1(10)/45 + 7(10)/10 = (10)N 200/27 + 2/9 + 7 = 10N 200(9)/27 + 2(9)/9 + 7(9) = 10(9)N 200/3 + 2 + 63 = 90N 200(3)/3 + 2(3) + 63(3) = 90(3)N 200 + 6 + 189 = 270N 206 + 189 = 270N 306 + 89 = 270N 386 + 9 = 270N 395 = 270N 395/270 = N i gotta wonder

OpenStudy (hoblos):
