Can you regroup with unlike
denominators?
Sure, but first
find the LCD
and equivalent 8 x7
2 14 35
fractions. 9 1
3 x 7 21 21
Watch this! x3
- 5 5 15
7 x 3 21

Let’s see that again!
Remember,
first find the
LCD and 5 x4
2 8 28
equivalent 6 1
5 x 4 20 20
fractions.
x5
Watch this! - 3 3 15

How about these!
If you have a whole number, make a fraction with 0 in the
numerator and the same denominator the mixed number
has.

Then regroup as we have before!


Remember to simplify if you need to.
Now, you try!!!!
