What is the LCD(Least common denominator)?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
45
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Right! So, what are the numerators?
2/9 = ?/45 (You multiplied by 5)
4/5 = ?/45 (You multiplied by 9)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
2/9=0.2222 Repeatedly
4/5=0.8

No. Sorry here is what I meant:
\[\frac{ 2 }{ 9 } \to \frac{ ? }{ 45 }\]\[\frac{ 4 }{ 5 } \to \frac{ ? }{ 45 }\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So Do I Cross Multiply
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@jazy
OpenStudy (anonymous):
That could work too. Or you can think
For the fraction 2/9.... 9 * 5 = 45 so multiply 2 * 5 = ?
For the fraction 4/5.... 5 * 9 = 45 so multiply 4 * 9 = ?

Right, so add the fractions:

What fraction are you left with?
OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay it goes in ONE time and has 1 left over. Remember your denominator was 45... so:
\[1\frac{ 1 }{ 45 }\]
