00:00hi guys welcome to my youtube channel in this video we are going to discuss that how to add
00:05fraction without lcm method you can add fraction without finding lcm so we have a question 3 upon
00:134 plus 5 upon 8 so first of all we rewrite the question we have to add two fraction 3
00:19upon 4
00:19plus 5 upon 8 so first you can observe that we have two numbers in the denominators one is 4
00:27and second is 8 so first of all you have to observe smaller number some other number is 4 and
00:33then you
00:34have to try to make equal denominators mean we have to make denominators equal to 8 so here we have
00:418
00:41but we can make it by multiplying n number to this number so you can count the table you know
00:49that 4
00:50times 1 is 4 and 4 times 2 is 8 so you can multiply 4 with 2 to get 8
00:58so we have to simply multiply
01:00this fraction with a number first of all we rewrite all numbers same as it is so simply you have
01:07to
01:07multiply 4 with 2 and to balance the fraction we have to multiply the numerator by 2 so now see
01:14the
01:14result 3 times 2 is 6 divided by 4 times to 8 plus 5 upon 8 so now you can
01:21see that we have equal
01:22denominator so now you can see that we have equal denominator so here no need of lcm so simply you
01:29have to write it in the new fraction as a denominator and then you have to add numerators 6 plus
01:365 so our
01:37answer is 11 over 8 so this was the method that how to add fractions without taking lcm by equating
01:44the denominator
