Addition (Mixed Fractions)

When we have to add a whole number and a fraction, we take whole number as a fraction and this can be done by putting 1 as the denominator of the given whole number i.e x and x/1 are both equal. And then we can solve the given problem as we solve Addition of Fractions with Different Denominator. Study the following example of Addition of Whole Number and Fraction Example 1 : Add the following whole number and fraction 2 + 1 5 Answer = The proceed is as: 2 + 1 5 or we can write it as 2 1 + 1 5 Now, follow the process of ( Addition of Fractions with Different Denominator ) {(2 × 5) + ( 1 × 1 } 5 Solve Parentheses and we get: {10 + 1} 5 = 11 5 Example 2 : Add the following whole number and fraction 5 + 2 7 Answer = The proceed is as: 5 + 2 7 or we can write it as 5 1 + 2 7 Now, follow the process of ( Addition of Fractions with Different Denominator ) {(5 × 7) + (2 × 1)} 7 Solve Parentheses and we get: {35 + 2} 7 = 37 5 Example 3 : Add the following whole number and fraction 10 + 5 11 Answer = The proceed is as: 10 + 5 11 or we can write it as 10 1 + 5 11 Now, follow the process of ( Addition of Fractions with Different Denominator ) {(10 × 11) + (5 × 1) } 11 Solve Parentheses and we get: {110 + 5} 11 = 115 11
