In this video, we're going to talk about how to add two fractions.
2
So let's start with this example.
3
2 over 3 plus 3 over 4.
4
So how can we add these two fractions?
5
The first thing you can do is multiply the denominators of the fractions.
6
3 times 4 is 12. And then cross multiply.
7
2 times 4 is 8, and then multiply 3 times 3, and that will give you 9.
8
And then you could add 8 and 9.
9
8 plus 9 is 17.
10
So we get the answer 17 over 12.
11
And so this is our answer as an improper fraction.
12
Now, let's try another example.
13
So let's add 5 over 3 plus 1 over 2.
14
So let's follow the same technique.
15
3 times 2 is 6. And then cross multiply.
16
5 times 2 is 10.
17
3 times 1 is 3.
18
And then we're going to add 10 plus 3.
19
So 10 plus 3 is 13.
20
So the answer is 13 over 6. by the way
21
if you want more videos on fractions let's say how to subtract fractions how to multiply
22
or divide fractions check out the description section of this video i'm going to post some links there
23
that you might find useful
24
but now let's get back to this video let's work on another problem
25
so now it's your turn go ahead and add the following fractions 2 over 5 plus 1 over 4
26
And also try this example, 3 over 7 plus 5 over 9.
27
Feel free to pause the video and try those examples.
28
So let's start with the first one.
29
So first we're going to multiply 5 and 4.
30
5 times 4 is 20. And then cross multiply.
31
2 times 4 is 8.
32
5 times 1 is 5.
33
And now we can add 8 plus 5 is 13.
34
So the answer is 13 over 20.
35
Now let's try the example below.
36
So let's multiply 7 by 9.
37
7 times 9 is 63. And then cross multiply.
38
3 times 9 is 27.
39
And 7 times 5 is 35.
40
So now we'll need to add 27 and 35.
41
So you can use a calculator or you can do it the old-fashioned way.
42
Let's do it the old-fashioned way.
43
5 plus 7 is 12, so we need to write the 2, carry over the 1.
44
And then 3 plus 2 plus 1 is 6.
45
So 27 plus 35 is 62.
46
So the final answer for that example is 62 divided by 63.
47
So at this point, you know how to add 2 fractions.
48
But what if you need to add, let's say, 3 fractions?
49
What should you do?
50
So before we go into this example, I want to show you another example of adding 2 fractions but using a different method.
51
So let's start with this problem, 3 over 8 plus 5 over 7.
52
So let's begin by using the method that you're familiar with
53
and then we'll use a new method to get the same answer.
54
So what we did before is multiply the two denominators of the fractions.
55
8 times 7 is 56.
56
And then we would cross multiply.
57
3 times 7 is 21.
58
And 8 times 5 is 40.
59
And then we would add 21 plus 40 is 61.
60
So our answer for this example would be 61 over 56.
61
Now here's another method which is useful if you're adding multiple fractions.
62
So what you want to do is get a common denominator of 56.
63
In order to do so, the fraction on the left you need to multiply the top and the bottom by 7.
64
And for the fraction on the right, multiply the top and the bottom by 8.
65
So this would give you a common denominator of 56.
66
So 3 times 7 is 21, and 7 times 8 is 56.
67
5 times 8 is 40, and on the bottom, 7 times 8 is 56.
68
Now whenever you're adding two fractions, if the denominator is the same, then you're allowed to add the numerators of the two fractions.
69
So 21 plus 40 is 61.
70
And thus, we're going to get the same answer of 61 over 56.
71
This technique works if you're adding, let's say, three fractions or even four fractions.
72
Now, let's try this example.
73
2 over 5 plus 3 over 4 plus 1 over 3.
74
So the first thing we need to do is identify a common denominator that we need to get to.
75
So we need to find the least common multiple of 5, 4, and 3.
76
How can we do so?
77
Well, a simple way is to multiply 5 times 4 times 3.
78
You could use any common multiple.
79
It doesn't really have to be the least common multiple.
80
But if you could find the least common multiple, then it's going to be easier.
81
But let's keep it simple.
82
so 5 times 4 times 3
83
5 times 4 is 20 20 times 3 is 60 so 60 is a common multiple of 5, 4, and 3 it might even be the least common multiple
84
and I think it is so what I'm going to do now is take 60 and divide it by 5
85
60 divided by 5 is 12 so therefore I'm going to multiply the second fraction, I mean the first fraction, by 12.
86
So that will give me a common denominator of 60.
87
Now 60 divided by 4 is 15.
88
So I need to multiply the second fraction, the top and the bottom, by 15.
89
Whatever you multiply the bottom of a fraction by, you need to do so also to the top.
90
Now 60 divided by 3 is 20.
91
So I'm going to multiply the third fraction by 20 over 20.
92
12 times 2 is 24 and we know that 12 times 5 is 60.
93
15 times 3 is 45 and 15 times 4 is 60.
94
20 times 1 is 20.
95
20 times 3 is 60.
96
So notice that we have a common denominator of 60.
97
So now all we need to do is add up the three numerators.
98
So let's find a sum of 45, 24, and 20.
99
5 plus 4 is 9.
100
4 plus 2 plus 2 is 8.
101
So 24 plus 45 plus 20 is 89.
102
So our answer for this problem is 89 over 60.
103
So that's how you can add three fractions together.
104
Now let's try another example.
105
So now it's your turn.
106
Go ahead and add 1 over 4 plus 5 over 6 plus 1 over 2.
107
So let's identify the least common multiple of 4, 6, and 2.
108
Multiples of 6 are 6, 12, 18, 24, and so forth.
109
Multiples of 4 are 4, 8, 12, 16, 20.
110
Multiples of 2 are 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14.
111
So which of these are the least common multiple of 2, 4, and 6?
112
Notice that 12 is the lowest common number or lowest common multiple of 2, 4, and 6.
113
So therefore, 12 is the least common multiple.
114
Now, 12 divided by 4 is 3.
115
So I'm going to multiply this fraction by 3 over 3.
116
And 12 divided by 6 is 2.
117
So I'm going to multiply this second fraction by 2 over 2.
118
And 12 divided by 2 is 6.
119
So I'm going to multiply this fraction.
120
Let's change that color. By 6 over 6.
121
So I'm going to get 3 over 12 plus 2 times 5 is 10.
122
2 times 6 is 12.
123
and then 6 times 1 is 6, 6 times 2 is 12.
124
So now we need to add.
125
3 plus 10 is 13.
126
13 plus 6 is 19.
127
So the final answer is 19 over 12.
128
So that is it for this video.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
