Question 1 (e) Add the following fractions using Brahmagupta’s method: (e) 3/4+1/3+1/5 To find common denominator of these fractions We need to find LCM Common denominator = LCM of 4, 3, 5 = 2 Γ— 2 Γ— 3 Γ— 5 = 60 Now, making denominator 60 of all these fractions πŸ‘/πŸ’=πŸ‘/πŸ’ Γ—πŸπŸ“/πŸπŸ“ =πŸ’πŸ“/πŸ”πŸŽ 𝟏/πŸ‘=1/3 Γ—20/20 =𝟐𝟎/πŸ”πŸŽ 𝟏/πŸ“=1/5 Γ—12/12 =𝟏𝟐/πŸ”πŸŽ Our sum becomes 3/4+1/3+1/5 = 45/60+20/60+12/60 = (45 + 20 + 12)/60 = πŸ•πŸ•/πŸ”πŸŽ
