Compare adding unlike fractions and adding like fractions

We just add numerators and rewrite denominator.

Adding unlike dominators:

We need to find the same denominators. You need to find the least common multiple (LCM) of the two denominators.

Step-by-step explanation:

You mean unlike denominators and like denominators.

Adding like dominators: We just add numerators and rewrite denominator :

Example :

Adding unlike dominators:

We need to find the same denominators. You need to find the least common multiple (LCM) of the two denominators.

For example :

LCM for 5 and 4 is 20 : Now, divide by 5 and multiply by 1 for first fraction. 20 divide by 4 and multiply by 3 :

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions
