How to reduce the sum to lowest terms 15 1/2+3/4
Remark.
1 / 2 = 2 • 1 / 2 • 2 = 2 / 4
15 1/2 + 3 / 4 = 15 + 1 / 2 + 3 / 4 =
15 + 2 / 4 + 3 / 4 = 15 + 5 / 4 =
4 • 15 / 4 + 5 / 4 = 60 / 4 + 5 / 4 =
65 / 4
1 / 2 = 2 • 1 / 2 • 2 = 2 / 4
15 1/2 + 3 / 4 = 15 + 1 / 2 + 3 / 4 =
15 + 2 / 4 + 3 / 4 = 15 + 5 / 4 =
4 • 15 / 4 + 5 / 4 = 60 / 4 + 5 / 4 =
65 / 4
