1/14 + 5/14 ? 13/14 - 3/14

1 answer

Let's simplify the two expressions step by step.

  1. For the addition: \[ \frac{1}{14} + \frac{5}{14} = \frac{1 + 5}{14} = \frac{6}{14} \] This can be simplified further: \[ \frac{6}{14} = \frac{3}{7} \]

  2. For the subtraction: \[ \frac{13}{14} - \frac{3}{14} = \frac{13 - 3}{14} = \frac{10}{14} \] This can also be simplified: \[ \frac{10}{14} = \frac{5}{7} \]

So, the answers are:

  • \( \frac{1}{14} + \frac{5}{14} = \frac{3}{7} \)
  • \( \frac{13}{14} - \frac{3}{14} = \frac{5}{7} \)
