## PCSR REVIEW SERIES WEEK 3: Addition and Subtraction of Fractions

Last week, we have learned how to add and subtract fractions. In this post, we are going to learn about addition of mixed fractions.

There are two strategies in addition and subtraction of mixed fractions. The first one is to add or subtract first the whole numbers (if possible), then add or subtract the fraction. The second is to convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions before performing addition or subtraction.

The following are the Youtube videos where you can learn how to add and subtract mixed fractions.

If you have time, I suggest that you watch the complete FRACTION SERIES here (24 videos):

Good luck!

Below are the solutions and answers to the Practice Exercises and Problems for the Week 2 Review on Addition and Subtraction of Fractions.

1.) 3/5
2.) 2/5
3.) 4/7
4.) 2
5) 3/5

Practice Exercises 2
Convert the following improper fractions to mixed form.
1.) 3 3/5
2.) 1 5/7
3.) 4 1/2
4.) 12 3/4
5) 10 1/12

1. The LCM of the denominators 2 and 8 is 8. We convert ½ to a fraction whose denominator is 8 in order for the two fractions to be similar. To do this, we divided 8 by 2 and the multiply by 1. The result will be the numerator of the fraction. That is

$\dfrac{8}{2} \times \dfrac{ 1}{8} = \dfrac{4}{8}$.

So, $\dfrac{4}{8} + \dfrac{9}{8} = \dfrac{13}{8}$.

Converting the answer to mixed form, we have $1\dfrac{5}{8}$

2. The LCM of 5 and 4 is 20. After getting the LCM, we convert 3/5 and 1/4 to their equivalent fractions whose denominator is 20.

The equivalent fraction for 3/5 is 12/20.
The equivalent fraction of 1/4 is 5/20.

12/20 + 5/20 = 17/20

3. The LCM of 2, 3 and 4 is 12. After getting the LCM, we convert 1/2, 1/3, and 1/4 to their respective equivalent fractions whose denominator is 12.

The equivalent fraction for 1/2 is 6/12.
The equivalent fraction of 1/3 is 4/12.
The equivalent fraction of 1/4 is 3/12.

6/12 + 4/12 + 3/12 = 13/12

Converting 13/12 to mixed fractions, we get 1 1/12.

4. The LCM of 12, 2 and 3 is 12. After getting the LCM, we convert 5/12, 1/2, and 2/3 to their respective equivalent fractions whose denominator is 12.

The equivalent fraction for 5/12 is still 5/12.
The equivalent fraction of 1/2 is 6/12.
The equivalent fraction of 2/3 is 8/12.

5/12 + 6/12 + 8/12 = 19/12

Converting 19/12 to mixed fractions, we get 1 7/12.

5. The LCM of 4 and 6 is 12. Therefore, we convert 3/4 and 1/6 to their respective equivalent fractions whose denominator is 12.

The equivalent fraction for 3/4 is still 9/12.
The equivalent fraction of 1/6 is 2/12.

9/12 – 2/12 = 7/12

6. The LCM of 15 and 30 is 30. Therefore, we convert 13/15 and 7/30 to their respective equivalent fractions whose denominator is 30.

The equivalent fraction for 13/15 is still 26/30.
The equivalent fraction of 15/30 is 15/30.

26/30 – 7/30 = 19/30

7. In this problem, we can just add the fractions first. We add ¾ and ½ which is equal to 1 ¼ kg. We now add the 4 and 1 which is 5 ¼ kg.

8.  We need to add 1/8 and 1/2.
The LCM of 8 and 2 is 8. Therefore, we convert 1/2 to a fraction whose denominator is 8.

The equivalent fraction of 1/2 is 4/8.

1/8 + 4/8 = 5/8

9. We need to add 1 1/2 and 3/4. We just add the fractions and then add the whole numbers later. We first add ½ and ¾.

The LCM of 2 and 4 is 4. Therefore, we convert 1/2 to a fraction whose denominator is 4.

The equivalent fraction of 1/2 is 3/4.

2/4 + 3/4 = 5/4

Converting 5/4 to mixed fractions, we have 1 ¼.

We add 1 ¼ to 1 from the original given. The answer 2 ¼.

10. We need to add ¼, 1/5, and 3/10.

The LCM of 4, 5 and 10 is 20. Therefore, we convert 1/4, 1/5, and 3/10 to their respective equivalent fractions whose denominator is 20.

The equivalent fraction for 1/4 is still 5/20.
The equivalent fraction of 1/5 is 4/20.
The equivalent fraction of 3/10 is 6/20.

5/20 + 4/20 + 6/20 = 15/20

Changing 15/20 to lowest terms, we have ¾.
