yes. then you find the GCF
OpenStudy (juicstice):
the denominators have to be the same
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok one sec
OpenStudy (anonymous):
omg brain fart. how do you you find the greatest common factor of 17/3 and 18/7?
OpenStudy (juicstice):
If you multiply 3 by 7 you get 18 so that would be the greatest common factor
then to apply that to the problem you multiply 17/3 by 7/7
18/7 by 3/3

okay now you add that to 7 3/7
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
225/28?
OpenStudy (juicstice):
okay so the proper form would be 52/7 then find the GCF which is 21
multiply 52/7 by 3/3
OpenStudy (juicstice):
then add them together

ok
OpenStudy (anonymous):
156/21?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
now i add 156/21 + 225/28?
OpenStudy (juicstice):
yes. now you need to subtract 12 from both sides
to do that with fractions you make 12 look like this: 12/1
then find the GCF which is 21 then multiply 21/1 by 21/21
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok
