What else can I help you with?
What must you do first before adding or subtracting unlike fractions?
you must make the fractions equivalent and with the same denomenator
What is the definition of adding and subtracting fractions with unlike denominators?
What is the definition of Adding and Subtracting Like Fractions
How is adding like fractions and adding unlike fractions the same?
If the denominators are not the same, then you have to use equivalent fractions which do have a common denominator . To do this, you need to find the least common multiple (LCM) of the two denominators. To add fractions with unlike denominators, rename the fractions with a common denominator. Then add and simplify.
What problems can be solved using gcf and LCM?
Finding the LCM will make adding and subtracting fractions easier.
What types of problems can be solved using the the LCM?
Anything having to do with adding or subtracting unlike fractions.
Does the denominator have to be the same when adding a fraction?
When adding two or more unlike fractions, yes.

How is adding fractions with unlike denominators different from addig with like denominators?
Adding fractions with like denominators is straightforward, as you simply add the numerators while keeping the denominator the same. In contrast, adding fractions with unlike denominators requires finding a common denominator, which involves identifying the least common multiple of the denominators. Once a common denominator is established, you convert each fraction accordingly before adding the numerators. This extra step makes the process more complex compared to adding fractions with like denominators.
What is adding fractions with unlike denominators?
I'm really sorry I've done this before but i just totally am thinking the same exact thing!
When can you use common multiples and factors?
Use the LCM when you are adding and subtracting unlike fractions. Use the GCF when you are simplifying fractions.
Adding and subtracting unlike fractions steps?
first u find a common denominator
How does the least common multiple of two numbers help you add fractions?
When adding unlike fractions, find the LCM of the denominators and convert them to it.
