Subtraction of Fractions

Subtraction of Fractions : Subtraction of fractions is an arithmetic operation to be performed where fractions are involved in the expression. To subtract two like fractions we have to subtract their numerators, while to subtract two unlike fractions, we have to first convert them into like fractions by taking the LCM of the denominators. We… Continue reading Subtraction of Fractions

Addition of Algebraic Expressions

In mathematics, just like we add many numbers as we can and find the sum, we add two or many algebraic expressions too. However, for the addition of algebraic expressions, we combine all the like terms and then add them. What Is Addition of Algebraic Expressions? Addition of algebraic expressions is quite similar to the addition of numbers. However, the… Continue reading Addition of Algebraic Expressions

Addition Tips and Tricks

Count From A Number Upwards Example: 6 + 3 Think “6 … 7, 8, 9” Hint: start from the larger number. Example: 2 + 6 2 + 6 is Harder: “2 … 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8” 6 + 2 is Easier: “6 … 7, 8” So do 6 + 2 instead (you get the same answer). Jump Strategy We… Continue reading Addition Tips and Tricks

Divide

Divide : In Mathematic the four basic arithmetic operations are addition, subtraction multiplication, and division. Based on the problem requirement, the type of arithmetic operation has chosen. For example, to share 100 chocolates equally among 25 children, we need to divide 100 by 25. Thus, each child will get 4 chocolates. In this article, we… Continue reading Divide
