what is the sum of 3/4 and 4/5
Answers
Answer:
31/20
Step-by-step explanation:
3/4 and 4/5 are unlike fractions because their denominators are different so we need to make it a like fraction by using common denominators.
To make denominators same,
take out LCM of 4 & 5 = 2x2x4
= 20
(3/4 x 5/5) + (4/5 x 4/4)
15/20 + 16/20
Now add the numerators
31/20.
Solution :-
We need to find the sum of (3/4) and (4/5) .
Since denominator of both fractions is different . So, in order to make denominator same we must multiply them with LCM of their denominators .
So,
→ 4 = 2 * 2
→ 5 = 1 * 5
then,
→ LCM = 2 * 2 * 5 = 20
now, In fraction (3/4) multiply both numerator and denominator by 5 in order to make denominator equal to LCM .
→ (3/4) * (5/5) = (3 * 5)/(4 * 5) = (15/20)
and, In fraction (4/5) multiply both numerator and denominator by 4 in order to make denominator equal to LCM .
→ (4/5) * (4/4) = (4 * 4)/(5 * 4) = (16/20)
therefore, putting both values now, we get,
→ (3/4) + (4/5)
→ (15/20) + (16/20)
→ (31/20)
→ 1(11/20) = 1 whole (11/20) (Ans.)
