<p>In other words "one and three quarters" is the same as "seven quarters".</p>

<h2>Adding Mixed Fractions</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p>To add mixed fractions:</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>convert them to <a href="../improper-fractions.html">Improper Fractions</a></li>
|
||
<li>then add them (using <a href="../fractions_addition.html">Addition of Fractions</a>)</li>
|
||
<li>then convert back to Mixed Fractions</li>
|
||
</ul>Like this:<br><div class="example">
|
||
|
||
<h3>Example: What is 2 <span class="intbl">
|
||
<em>3</em>
|
||
<strong>4</strong>
|

</span> + 3 <span class="intbl">
|
||
<em>1</em>
|
||
<strong>2</strong>
|

</span> ?</h3>
|

<p>Convert to Improper Fractions:</p>

<p class="center"><span class="intbl">

<p>Convert back to Mixed Fractions:</p>

<p>When you get more experience you can do it faster like this example:</p>

|

<p>Make same denominator: <span class="intbl">

<h2>Subtracting Mixed Fractions</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p>Just follow the same method, but subtract instead of add:</p>
|
||
|
||
<div class="example">

<p>Convert to Improper Fractions:</p>

<p>Common denominator of 12:</p>
|

<p class="center"><span class="intbl">

<strong>12</strong>
|
||
</span></p>
|
||
<p>Now Subtract:</p>
|
||
<p class="center"><span class="intbl">

<strong>12</strong>
|
||
</span> − <span class="intbl">

<p>Convert back to Mixed Fractions:</p>
