Problems for Fractions Reducing

A fraction is a number that can represent part of a whole. The earliest fractions were reciprocals of integers: ancient symbols representing one part of two, one part of three, one part of four, and so on. A much later development were the common or "vulgar" fractions which are still used today (½, ⅝, ¾, etc.) and which consist of a numerator and a denominator.

Word problems for fractions reducing Problems:

Word problems 1: Jack bought 6/4 liters of milk but he used only 2/4 liters of the milk. How much milk did he have left? And reducing  the fractions.

Solution:

Initially jack had 6/4 liter of milk

He used 2/4 liter of milk

Now we have to find the remaining amount

The remaining amount

=6/4 -2/4

= 6-2/4

=4/4

By reducing the fraction get 1 is the answer.

Word problems 2: My pet is 1/4 years old and my dog is 7/4 years old find the total sums of ages And reducing  the fractions

Solution:

Given pet is 1/4 years old

And my dog is 7/4 years old

Now we have to find the total sums of ages

= 1/4 +7/4

=1+7/4

= 8/4

By reducing the above fraction we get 2 is the answer.

Word problems 3: Rahul needs to drink 1/5 liters of coffee and 14/5 liters of coke every day. How much fluid do rahul have to drink? And reducing  the fractions

Solution:

Given

Rahul needs to drink 1/5 liter of coffee

And 14/5 liters of coke every day

Now we have to find how much fluid do rahul have to drink?

=  1/5 +14/5

=1 +14/5

= 15/5

By reducing the above fraction we get 3 is the answer.

Word problems 5: John bought 3/11 liters of oil but he used only 25/11 liters of the oil. How much oil did he have left? And reducing  the fractions

Solution:

Initially john had 3/11 liter of oil

He used 25/11 liter of oil

Now we have to find the remaining amount
