Given:
Since the denominators are not common (not the same), we need to find the Least Common Denominator (LCD), which is equivalent to the Least Common Multiple of 7 and 10:
LCD = LCM(7, 10) = 70
Express the given fractions as equivalent fractions with respect to the LCD (70):
Since the equivalent fractions have common denominators, we can add the numerators:
14/20
+ 4/28
, which equals 7/10
+ 1/7
(both fractions simplified)Since the denominators are not common (not the same), we need to find the Least Common Denominator (LCD), which is equivalent to the Least Common Multiple of 7 and 10:
LCD = LCM(7, 10) = 70
Express the given fractions as equivalent fractions with respect to the LCD (70):
7/10
= 49/70
and 1/7
= 10/70
As a result, 7/10
+ 1/7
= 49/70
+ 10/70
Since the equivalent fractions have common denominators, we can add the numerators:
49/70
+ 10/70
= 49 + 10/70
= 59/70
59/70
is in Simplest Form since the Greatest Common Factor of 59 and 70 equals 1, GCF(59, 70) = 1Therefore, the Sum of 14/20
and 4/28
is equal to 59/70
in Simplest Form: 14/20
+ 4/28
= 59/70
