3. 5 - 2 3/8 = 21/8 or 2 5/8
4. 1/2 + 3/4 = 5/4
5. 43 3/4 - 39 1/4 = 4 1/2kgs
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 1/2 + 1/4 =
step 1: get the least common denominator. to do this, multiply 1/2 with 2/2 to get 2/4.
step 2: apply the operation. add the numerator and copy the denominator
2/4 + 1/4 = 3/4
2. 1 4/5 - 1/2 =
step 1: convert improper fraction to proper fraction (1 4/5 to 9/5)
step 2: get the common denominator of 2 and 5 which is 10.
step 3: divide 10 by the denominator and multiply the numerator (ex. 10/5=2; 2x9= 18). you get 18/5 and -5/10
step 4: apply the operation. subtract 18 by 5 for the numerator and copy the denominator.
3. 5 - 2 3/8
step 1: convert improper fraction to proper fraction (2 3/8 to 19/8)
step 2: get the common denominator by multiplying 5/1 by 8/8
