  1. If you have to add or subtract the fraction take the LCM of the denominators.
  2. If you want to multiply the fractions multiply the numerator of one with other and denominator of one with other.
  3. If you want to divide the fraction then take the reciprocal of the second term, the sign of divide will change into multiply. You may solve the equation now.

for example= x/y divide z/m

= x/y x m/z omg that sounds hard so no
