4 LESSON Operations with Fractions Indicators.N.,,,, To add or subtract fractions with unlike denominators, first rewrite them as equivalent fractions with like denominators. Start by finding the least common denominator (LCD) of the fractions. The LCD is the same as the least common multiple (LCM) of the denominators. The LCM of and 8 is. So rewrite the fractions with a denominator of Then subtract: To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators and multiply the denominators As a shortcut, you can cancel common factors. 7 To divide fractions, multiply by the reciprocal of the divisor. Again, you can cancel common factors Remember Finding the least common multiple (LCM): Multiples of :,, 8,, 0 Multiples of 8: 8,,,, 0 The LCM of and 8 is. To find the reciprocal of a fraction, simply switch the numerator and denominator. The reciprocal of a whole number is divided by the number. Dividing is the same as multiplying by the reciprocal. Multiplying is the same as dividing by the reciprocal. 0 0 efore multiplying or dividing mixed numbers, change them to improper fractions. 7 If an answer is a fraction, reduce it to lowest terms. If an answer is an improper fraction, you can change it to a mixed number. 8 Unit Operations The Continental Press, Inc. Do not duplicate.

12 LESSON Dividing Fractions.NS. The product of a number and its reciprocal is always. To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators. Then multiply the denominators. 8 To change a mixed number to a fraction greater than, multiply the whole number part by the denominator. Then add the numerator. This becomes the new numerator of the fraction. The denominator stays the same. To change a fraction greater than to a mixed number, divide the numerator by the denominator. Write the remainder as a fraction. To divide fractions, multiply by the reciprocal of the second fraction. The numerator and denominator of a reciprocal switch places. What is the reciprocal of each number? 8 Switch the numerator and the denominator. The reciprocal of is. The reciprocal of 8 is 8 8. As a fraction,. The reciprocal of is. What is the quotient of 8? First rewrite as multiplication using the reciprocal of 8. The reciprocal of 8 is 8, so the equivalent multiplication expression is 8. Multiply and reduce to lowest terms if necessary. The quotient of 8. 8 UNIT Operations The Continental Press, Inc. DUPLICATING THIS MATERIAL IS ILLEGAL.
