Question 1 (i) Add the following fractions using Brahmagupta’s method: (i) 9/2+5/4 Basically, we need to make denominator same To do this, we multiply both denominators 2 × 4 = 8 But, this is too big We can just do 2 × 2 = 4 and only change 1st fraction Let’s do that 𝟗/𝟐=𝟗/𝟐 ×𝟐/𝟐 =𝟏𝟖/𝟒 Now, our sum becomes 9/2+5/4 = 18/4+5/4 = 𝟐𝟑/𝟒
