1. Solve 4 + 1/3
First: make the whole number, 4, a fraction - place 4 over 1....
4/1 + 1/3
Sec: find the greatest common denominator which is, 3....
4/1 = x/1 + 1/3 = 1/x
Third: multiply each fraction by the missing values to get the greatest common denominator.....
(3)(4/1) = x/1 + (1)(1/3) = 1/x
(4*3/1*3) = 12/3 + (1*1/3*1) = 1/3
*Combine the fractions with the same denominator....
12/3 + 1/3
= 13/3
2. Solve 2 - 1/2
First: make the whole number, 2, a fraction - place 2 over 1....
2/1 - 1/2
Sec: find the greatest common denominator which is, 2....
2/1 = x/1 - 1/2 = 1/x
Third: multiply each fraction by the missing values to get the greatest common denominator.....
(2)(2/1) = x/1 - (1)(1/2) = 1/x
(2*2/1*2) = 4/2 - (1*1/2*1) = 1/2
*Combine the fractions with the same denominator....
4/2 - 1/2
= 3/2

This is not order of operation, just adding fractions. You need to get a common denominator.
12/3 + 1/3 = 13/3
4/2 - 1/2 = 3/2
Notice how 12/3 = 4 and 4/2 = 2

properly, then shall we start up with the trinity, no longer fractions, basically common additions. a million + a million+ a million = a million OR a million + a million+a million = 3 in case you're saying the 1st answer is the wonderful answer as a believer, then I dont think of the believers understand common addition in any respect, conversing approximately fractions! Edit: properly, it relatively is 3 seperate entity, so how could be a million x a million x a million? Father isn't equivalent to son and not equivalent to Holy Spirit, examine the dictionary for the meanings, it relatively is 3 diverse meanings, and the meaning of God too.

4=12/3
12/3+1/3=13/3=4 1/3
2=4/2
4/2-1/2=3/2=1 1/2

divide/mutliply first, then add/subtract
4 + 1/3 = 4 + 0.3333... = 4.3333...
2 - 1/2 = 2 - 0.5 = 1.5

Get the book, Painless Fractions. It's about $9.00. i suck at fractions, and this book taught me how to do it.
