Note 2.--If there is a remainder and the sign of its first term is plus, write the remainder over the divisor and annex it to the entire part, connecting them with the plus sign. Note 3.--If the sign of the first term of the remainder is minus, change the sign of each term of the remainder, write it over the divisor, and annex it to the entire part, connecting them with the minus sign. 176. To reduce a mixed quantity to an improper fraction.

EXAMPLES. 1. X-4+E+l (x-i)(x + 3)=x2-x-12 X + 3 Adding x2 +8 a--b 177. To reduce fractions to their lowest common denominator. Rule.--Find the lowest common multiple of the denominators for the required denominator. Divide this denominator by the denominator of each fraction, and multiply the numerator by the quotient. To The Teacher.--Train students to express the denominator of each fraction and the lowest common denominator in their factors. Then show that the quotient of the lowest common denominator divided by each denominator is all the factors of the lowest common denominator that are not found in the denominator of the fraction. This practice should also be observed in addition and subtraction of fractions. Students will save much time and labor if, in all work in algebra, they never multiply factors together until it is found to be necessary. Addition And Subtraction Of Fractions. 178.
