Ex: [5(1/3) ÷ -6/15] + [7/3 ÷ -1(1/5)] (or) [5(1/3) ÷ 6/15] - [7/3 ÷ 1(1/5)] (or) [5(1/3) ÷ 6/15] ÷ [7/3 ÷ 1(1/5)]






 

What is Complex Fraction?

Complex Fraction is a fraction which consists of one or more fractions (in numerator or denominator or both) inside it.
For example, we have a complex fraction as (p/q)/(r/s). Here p/q is numerator and r/s is denominator.

How to Solve Complex fractions?

Follow the steps below to calcualte complex fractions manually. By following these steps you will never make a mistake in calculating complex problems.

  • For simplifying complex fractions into lowest form, first, you need to write down the values which are given in the problem.
  • For adding and subtracting two complex fractions, you need to find the Least common denominator(LCD) by finding the least common multiple and make some math operations to get the simplest form.
  • Next, if you want to divide or multiply, just use simple division rule or follow some arithematic rules with fractions.
  • Finally, you will get the answer, by further simplification you can reduce the fraction into simple form.

Solved Example for Complex Fraction

Example

Question: Solve the complex fraction (5(6/7) ÷ 71/12) + (13/5 ÷ 9)

Solution:

Given complex fraction is (5(6/7) ÷ 71/12) + (13/5 ÷ 9)

Simplify complex fractions

(5(6/7) ÷ 71/12) = 41/7 ÷ 71/12

L.C.M of 7,12 is 84

84 x (41/7) ÷ 84 x (71/12) = 492/497

13/5 ÷ 9 = 13/5 ÷ 9/1

L.C.M of 5, 1 is 5.

5 x (13/5) ÷ 5 x (9/1) = 13/45

The given fractions are 492/497 nad 13/45

LC.M of 497, 45 is 22365

= (492x45 + 13x497)/22365

= (22140 + 6461)/22365

= 28601/22365

So, (5(6/7) ÷ 71/12) + (13/5 ÷ 9) = 28601/22365
