Given:
Since the denominators are common (the same), we can add the numerators:
Therefore, the Sum of
5/7
+ 4/7
Since the denominators are common (the same), we can add the numerators:
5/7
+ 4/7
= 5 + 4/7
= 9/7
9/7
is in Simplest Form since the Greatest Common Factor of 7 and 9 equals 1, GCF(7, 9) = 1Therefore, the Sum of
5/7
and 4/7
is equal to 9/7
in Simplest Form: 5/7
+ 4/7
= 9/7
Note: 9/7
is an improper fraction, and as a mixed number, 9/7
= 12/7
