| Question : |
|
How do the 'Unity Fractions' relate to fractions ? |
Answer : |
|
If the numerator of a simple fraction is unity, it is called a unity fraction. |
|
A complex fraction can be changed to a unity
fraction by inverting the denominator or/and multiplying, or by multiplying numerator and denominator by the least common
multiple of all denominators in the complex fraction. |
For example :
((1/3) / ((1/2) + (1/4)) = (12 x (1/3))) (12((1/2) + (1/4))) = 4/9 |
