Fractions – Multiplication Multiplication of fractions: When we multiply any two fractions then the top numbers of the fractions(numerators) and the bottom numbers of the fractions(denominators) are multiplied together. Example: 1/2 x 3/4 = (1 x 3)/(2 x 4) = 3/8 How to Multiply Fractions? Multiplication of fractions is not like as the addition and […]

Comparing – Unit Fractions Unit fractions are fractions in which numerator(top of the number) of the fraction is 1 and denominator(bottom number) of the fraction is a whole number. Example: 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/5, 1/12, and so on. In a unit fraction, the numerator is always 1. In a fraction, denominator shows the number of […]

Equality – Addition Property Definition: Addition property of equality states that if using the same mathematical operation(same number is added) on both sides of an equation, then both sides of equation will remain equal. In above example, we add 3 on both sides. When we add 3 left side we get (9 – 3 + […]

Negative Exponents In this tutorial, we will learn about negative exponents. When we change a negative exponent into positive exponent, we write the reciprocal of the given positive exponent. Negative sign means the reciprocal of the given number. For any non zero number a, (a-m = 1/am). Where m is a positive integer and a-m […]

Linear Equations – An Overview A linear equation is an algebraic equation with an equality sign and highest exponent of the variable is 1. Equality sign (=) divides the equation into two sides such as LHS and RHS. In a linear equation highest exponent of the variable is 1. The standard form of a linear […]

What is an Equation Definition: An equation is a mathematical statement with an ‘equality’ sign between two algebraic expression. The equality sign shows that the value of the expression to the left of the side (LHS or left hand side) is equal to the value of the expression to the right hand side (RHS or […]
