Fractions

Add fractions with the same denominator

Paper I Part I Q1: Add fractions with the same denominator

Answer: 5/8

💡 What it's asking: When fractions have the same bottom number (denominator), you add only the top numbers.

  1. 1Both fractions are in eighths.
  2. 2Add the tops: 3 + 2 = 5.
  3. 3Keep the bottom: 5/8.

✅ 3/8 is a bit under a half and 2/8 is a quarter; 5/8 is a bit more than a half. Sensible.

සිංහලෙන් විසඳුම

භාගවල හරය (පහළ සංඛ්‍යාව) සමාන විට එකතු කරන්නේ ලව පමණි.

  1. භාග දෙකම අටෙන් පංගු වේ.
  2. ලව එකතු කරන්න: 3 + 2 = 5.
  3. හරය එලෙසම තබන්න: 5/8.

Fractions

Complete an equivalent fraction

Paper I Part I Q2: Complete an equivalent fraction

Answer: 8 (6/9 = 8/12, per the Tamil version)

💡 What it's asking: Equivalent fractions have the same value. Simplify first, then multiply top and bottom by the same number to reach 12 at the bottom. (The English paper prints 6/7, a misprint; the Tamil paper's 6/9 is used.)

  1. 1Simplify: 6/9 = 2/3.
  2. 23 × 4 = 12, so multiply the top by 4 too: 2 × 4 = 8.
  3. 3So 6/9 = 8/12; the missing number is 8.

✅ 8/12 simplifies to 2/3, and so does 6/9.

සිංහලෙන් විසඳුම

තුල්‍ය භාගවලට එකම අගය ඇත. මුලින් සරල කර, හරය 12 වන සේ ලවයත් හරයත් එකම සංඛ්‍යාවෙන් ගුණ කරන්න. (ඉංග්‍රීසි පත්‍රයේ 6/7 මුද්‍රණ දෝෂයකි; දෙමළ පත්‍රයේ 6/9 භාවිත කෙරේ.)

  1. සරල කරන්න: 6/9 = 2/3.
  2. 3 × 4 = 12 නිසා ලවයද 4 න් ගුණ කරන්න: 2 × 4 = 8.
  3. එබැවින් 6/9 = 8/12; නැති සංඛ්‍යාව 8 යි.
