ADDITION &SUBTRACTION OF THE RATIONAL NUMBER

ADDITION OF RATIONAL NUMBER

Method 1 Find the LCM of denominator 1 1 Ex :  ! ....
3 2

The LCM of 2 and 3 = 6, so 1 2 1 3 and ! !

3 6 2 6

1 1 2 3 5  !  ! 3 2 6 6 6

Method 2 if
a b

and

m n

is a rational number, then

a m an  bm  ! b n bn

Ex :

1.2  1.3 5 1 1 !  ! 3.2 6 3 2

Subtraction of rational number

Method 1 Find the LCM of denominator Ex : 1 1
2  5 ! ...

The LCM of 2 and 5 = 10, so 1 5 1 2 and ! !

2 10 5 10 1 1 5 2 3  !  ! 2 5 10 10 10

Method 2 if a and m is a rational number, then

b n

a m an  bm  ! b n bn

Ex :

1 1 1.5  1.2 3  ! ! 2 5 10 10

Addition of Decimals
Ex : 78,3 + 2,78 =.. 6,038 + 95,69 =.. Adjust the position of comas: 78,30 6,038 2,78 95,690 + + 81,04 101,728

Subtraction of Decimals
Ex : 12,5 9,172 =.. 463,7 2,568 =.. Adjust the position of comas: 12,500 463,700 9,172 2,568 3,328 461,132

Multiplication of Decimals
Ex : 1) 6,4 x 5,7 =.. 2) 0,64 x 0,57 =.. 3) 0,0064 x 0,057 =. Answer : 1) 6,4 1 number behind coma 5,7 1 number behind coma x 448 320 + 36,48 2 number behind coma

2) 0,64

0,57

0,3648

2 numbers 2 numbers 4 number behind coma behind coma behind coma 3) 0,0064 x 0,057 = 0,0003648 4 numbers behind coma 3 numbers 7 numbers behind coma behind coma

Division of Decimals
Ex : 1) 24,336 : 0,8 =.. 2) 3,36168 : 0,046 =.. Answer : 1) 24,336 : 0,8 = x = Method : 30,42 8 243,36 24 03 0 33 32 16 16 0

2) 3,36168:0,046 = 73,08 46 3361,68 322 141 138 36 0 368 368 0
