What is 4/7 + 3/14? And please explain it. I will fan and medal!

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

find your common denominator which is 14 then so 3/14 7 goes twice into 14 so multiply both by two so now 8/14

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

then 8/14-3/14= give you what ?

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

sorry 8/14+3/14

OpenStudy (miss.rose):

So 11/14?

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

yes good job

OpenStudy (miss.rose):

How would you do that on a number line?

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

well this is going to be placed inbetween 0-1 because its not a whole number

OpenStudy (miss.rose):

Ok. Do you think you can draw that? I do not get how I am suppose to set up the number line.

@rebeccaxhawaii Thank you for all your help!!! Do you think I can ask you a few questions?

OpenStudy (miss.rose):

@zoeeh127 Can you help me with: 7/10 - 5/8?

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

the common denominator would be 40 so how many times does 10 go into 40 and how many times does 8 go into 40 ?
