The difference between two fractions is
1/10The smaller fraction is 5/7What is the sum of the two fractions?
To find the larger fraction, we need to add the difference 1/10 to the smaller fraction 5/7.
5/7 + 1/10 = (5*10 + 7*1) / (7*10) = 57/70
So the sum of the two fractions is 5/7 + 1/10 = 57/70.
To find the sum of two fractions, we need to add their numerators when they have the same denominator.
Given that the smaller fraction is 5/7 and the difference between the two fractions is 1/10, we can calculate the larger fraction by adding the difference to the smaller fraction.
The larger fraction = 5/7 + 1/10
To add these fractions, we need them to have a common denominator. In this case, the common denominator will be the product of the denominators, which is 7 * 10 = 70.
Now we can convert both fractions to have a denominator of 70:
(5/7) * (10/10) = 50/70
(1/10) * (7/7) = 7/70
Now, we can add the two fractions:
50/70 + 7/70 = (50 + 7) / 70 = 57/70
Therefore, the sum of the two fractions is 57/70.
