2. Fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraction

   The process for subtracting fractions is, in essence, the same as that of adding them: find a common denominator, and change each fraction to an equivalent fraction with the chosen common denominator. The resulting fraction will have that denominator, and its numerator will be the result of subtracting the numerators of the original fractions.

3. Partial fraction decomposition - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partial_fraction_decomposition

   In algebra, the partial fraction decomposition or partial fraction expansion of a rational fraction (that is, a fraction such that the numerator and the denominator are both polynomials) is an operation that consists of expressing the fraction as a sum of a polynomial (possibly zero) and one or several fractions with a simpler denominator.

4. Least common multiple - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least_common_multiple

   The least common multiple of the denominators of two fractions is the "lowest common denominator" (lcd), and can be used for adding, subtracting or comparing the fractions. The least common multiple of more than two integers a , b , c , . . . , usually denoted by lcm( a , b , c , . . .) , is defined as the smallest positive integer that is ...

5. Heaviside cover-up method - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heaviside_cover-up_method

   When a partial fraction term has a single (i.e. unrepeated) binomial in the denominator, the numerator is a residue of the function defined by the input fraction. We calculate each respective numerator by (1) taking the root of the denominator (i.e. the value of x that makes the denominator zero) and (2) then substituting this root into the ...

6. Lowest common denominator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lowest_common_denominator

   For example, the numerators of fractions with common denominators can simply be added, such that + = and that <, since each fraction has the common denominator 12. Without computing a common denominator, it is not obvious as to what 5 12 + 11 18 {\displaystyle {\frac {5}{12}}+{\frac {11}{18}}} equals, or whether 5 12 {\displaystyle {\frac {5 ...

7. Clearing denominators - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clearing_denominators

   The smallest common multiple of the two denominators 6 and 15z is 30z, so one multiplies both sides by 30z: 5 x z + 2 y = 30 z . {\displaystyle 5xz+2y=30z.\,} The result is an equation with no fractions.
