Operations on Rational Numbers
Introductory Message
For the facilitator:
This learning resource hopes to engage the learners into guided and independent
learning activities at their own pace and time. Furthermore, this also aims to help
learners acquire the needed 21st century skills while taking into consideration their
needs and circumstances.
In addition to the material in the main text, you will also see this box in the body of
the module:
As a facilitator you are expected to orient the learners on how to use this module.
You also need to keep track of the learners' progress while allowing them to manage
their own learning. Furthermore, you are expected to encourage and assist the
learners as they do the tasks included in the module.

Welcome to the Mathematics 7 Alternative Delivery Mode (ADM) Module on
Operations on Rational numbers!
The hand is one of the most symbolized part of the human body. It is often used to
depict skill, action and purpose. Through our hands we may learn, create and
accomplish. Hence, the hand in this learning resource signifies that you as a
learner is capable and empowered to successfully achieve the relevant
competencies and skills at your own pace and time. Your academic success lies in
your own hands!
This module was designed to provide you with fun and meaningful opportunities for
guided and independent learning at your own pace and time. You will be enabled to
process the contents of the learning resource while being an active learner.
What I Need to Know This will give you an idea of the skills or
competencies you are expected to learn in the module.
What I Know This part includes an activity that aims to check what
you already know about the lesson to take. If you get all the answers
correct (100%), you may decide to skip this module.
What’s In This is a brief drill or review to help you link the current
lesson with the previous one.
What’s New In this portion, the new lesson will be introduced to you
in various ways such as a
story, a song, a poem, a problem opener, an
activity or a situation.
What I Can Do This section provides an activity which will help you
transfer your new knowledge or skill
into real life situations or concerns.
Assessment This is a task which aims to evaluate your level of
mastery in achieving the learning competency.
iii
Additional Activities In this portion, another activity will be given to
you to enrich your knowledge or skill of the
lesson learned. This also tends retention of
learned concepts.
1. Use the module with care. Do not put unnecessary mark/s on any part of
the module. Use a separate sheet of paper in answering the exercises.
2. Don’t forget to answer What I Know before moving on to the other activities
included in the module.
3. Read the instruction carefully before doing each task.
4. Observe honesty and integrity in doing the tasks and checking your
answers.
5. Finish the task at hand before proceeding to the next.
6. Return this module to your teacher/facilitator once you are through with it.
If you encounter any difficulty in answering the tasks in this module, do not
hesitate to consult your teacher or facilitator. Always bear in mind that you are
not alone.
We hope that through this material, you will experience meaningful learning
and gain deep understanding of the relevant competencies. You can do it!

What is It
In adding and subtracting fractions, we have to consider if they are similar
fractions, dissimilar fractions or mixed fractions.
A. Similar Fractions
Similar fractions are fractions that have the same denominator. Below are
examples of similar fractions.

Take note that fractions can be added and subtracted only when these
fractions are similar fractions.
If a, b and c denote integers, and b ≠ 0, then

Dissimilar fractions are fractions with different denominators. Below are
examples of dissimilar fractions.

Dissimilar fractions cannot be added or subtracted directly. First, you need to
convert dissimilar fractions to similar fractions.

multiple of b and d.
2. Add or subtract the numerators of the resulting fractions.
3. Write the result as a fraction whose numerator is the sum or difference of
the numerators and which denominator is the least common multiple of b
and d.
Examples:

The rules in multiplying and dividing decimals is almost the same as the rules
in multiplying whole numbers except that you have to be extra cautious of the
decimal point.
A. Multiplying decimals
