Question

For adding mixed fractions (e.g., 5 `1/2` + 2 `3/4`), how are the whole numbers handled?

विकल्प

• They are converted into improper fractions immediately

• They are ignored until the final step

• They are added separately from the fractional parts

• They are multiplied by the denominators first

Answer 1

They are added separately from the fractional parts

Explanation:

Separating the whole numbers (e.g., 5 + 2) and adding them together, then adding the fractional parts (`1/2` + `3/4`) separately.
