Question 1 (m) Add the following fractions using Brahmaguptaβs method: (m) 9/2+5/4+7/6 To find common denominator of these fractions We need to find LCM Common denominator = LCM of 2, 4, 6 = 2 Γ 2 Γ 3 = 12 Now, making denominator 12 of all these fractions π/π=9/2 Γ6/6 =ππ/ππ π/π=5/4 Γ3/3 =ππ/ππ π/π=7/6 Γ2/2 =ππ/ππ Our sum becomes 9/2+5/4+7/6 = 54/12+15/12+14/12 = (54 + 15 + 14)/12 = ππ/ππ
