Fractions Multiplication with Different Denominators Fractions that have different denominators are known as unlike fractions. Addition and subtraction of unlike fractions are different from addition and subtraction of like fractions, but the method of multiplication of unlike fractions and like fractions are same. Multiplying fractions with different denominators is same as multiplication of common denominators. […]

Read More →Fractions – Division Division or divide is a method of sharing or grouping a number or things into equal parts. In this tutorial we will learn division of fractions. Multiplication and division of fractions is almost same. A fraction has 2 parts numerator and denominator. In division of fractions we multiply first fraction by reciprocal […]
Read More →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 […]
Read More →Addition of Like Fraction Addition of Fractions Fractions represents a part of a whole. The normal addition of numbers and the addition of fractions are different. A fraction has a numerator and a denominator which is separated by a bar. For example, 1/2, 4/3, 12/5, 24/7, 26/3. Let us see more about addition of like […]
Read More →Unit Fraction Definition: A unit fraction is a fraction in which numerator is 1 and denominator is a whole number. Example: 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/5, 1/12, and so on. Here are some examples of unit fractions. In below image 1/4, 1/2 , 1/6, 1/16 are unit fractions. Note: The product of 2 unit fractions is […]
Read More →Conversion of Mixed Fractions into Improper Fractions Mixed Fraction to a Improper Fraction A mixed fraction can be converted to an improper fraction. We know that an improper fraction is a fraction whose numerator is greater than denominator. A mixed fraction is a combination of a whole number and a proper fraction. So, when converting […]
Read More →Mixed Fraction Definition – Example Definition: A “Mixed Fraction” is a combination of a whole number and a proper fraction. In figure, example (i) shows, 2 3/4 is a mixed fraction where 2 is a whole number and 3/4 is a proper fraction. Example (ii) shows, 3 1/5 is a mixed fraction where 3 is a whole […]
Read More →Subtraction – Properties Properties of Subtractions 1. Subtracting 0 from any number, gives the number itself, means difference is nothing. 2. When we subtract any number from itself the result is zero, means difference is zero. 3. When we subtract 1 from any number, we get just before it, and the difference always equals the […]
Read More →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 + […]
