Fractions-LCD
So,hey Leafers!Whats the last dream you had?A cat
standing,shaking its hips like Shakira?Or maybe the Pet Rock
you had died of starvation-of course,Im not sure how that would
be possible,but-that was just to start you off.You really think
I care about what you dream?Not in my right mind!(Although Im

usually in my wrong mind).What I dream matters-fractions...they
give me the boogies at night!(not that I dont have Fraction
Repel Spray).But one day,we must all conquer our fears(even my
cat whose fear I am not currently sure of).And today,I shall
destroy my fear of fractions.Now,before we go into the mess(or
neatness),let me introduce you to the LCD.And if your a tech
geek(which you probably are not),then dont start thinking about
the lights above your head right now,because LCD is a math term
where it stands for Least Common Denominator.What in the sake of
the sake for sanity does that mean?That means you find the least
multiple both numbers have.A multiple is a product of 2
numbers.For example,2*2=4,so 4 is a multiple of 2.Now,it says
Least Common Denominator.That means if we have 2 fractions,like
2/2 and 5/6,you have to find the least multiple both numbers
have.So,lets make a table.
2 6
2*0=0 6*0=0
2*1=2 6*1=6
2*2=4 6*2=12
2*3=6 6*3=18
Yes,we could have chosen 0,but in math,we cannot divide by
zero.So,the LCD is now 6.Now,heres what we do:
2/2 => 2/2*3 => 2*3/2*3 => 6/6
We did 2*3 because that would make it 6,our LCD
We need to multiply the numerator and denominator by the same
number.
Fractions-Addition
Hello,Leafers!Now that you already know about LCD,adding
fractions will be a piece of cake(or a piece of a potato).For
example,lets say we have 6/2+.Lets put them into Common
Denominator,but you dont have to find the least of the common
denominators.You can just multiply the denominators of the
fractions to get a common denominator(a handy
trick).2*4=8.Heres how we do it to the numerator as well!
6/2=6*4/2*4=24/8

Dun-duh-duh-dun! Were done!
Fractions-Subtraction
Its additions annoying sister,subtraction(OK,I agree-that was
lame.LOL)!Now here,we just do the same thing as addition,we just
subtract.Lets begin!OK,So lets say we have 2/ and 3/9.

Simplifying Fractions
Definition:Fractions are in Simplest Fraction when the
numerator and denominator have no common factor other than 1.To
simplify,factor the Nummerator and Denominator.
DONT cancel terms that are not common factors.

Definition:The least common Denominator(LCD) of 2 or more
fractions is the least common multiple(LCM)of their
denominators.To find the LCD.
How To:
1. Factor both denominators and write the product of prime
factors.One way to do this is Prime Factorization using the
Factor Tree.
2. Take the greatest power of each prime factor.
3. Find the product.
Example: Find the LCD of
l
4
and
7
30
.
4 2 2 2
2
30 2 3 5
The greatest power of 2 is 2
2
,the greatest power of 3 is 3,and
the greatest power of 5 is 5.
So,we can indeed conclude that- 2

3 5 60.
Therefore,60 is the LCD.
