What figure will you get when you add 1/4 to 1/4?
You can work with these numbers the same way you do with whole numbers. Even though fractions depict less than one number, they can still be added, subtracted, multiplied, and divided. The primary thing that makes the operations with fractions easier is ensuring whether the fractions have the same denominator or not.
So, when you add both the numbers, you will get:
1/4 + 1/4 = 2/4 = 1/2 (As when you divide 2 with 4, you will get 1/2 as the answer)
As the denominator was the same in both the above fractions, the calculation could be made effortlessly. So, jotting down in words, one fourth plus one fourth is half. -
