The fraction will increase.
add half the denominator to the numerator
might you happen to mean "improper fraction"? In that case, multiply the larger number to the left by the denominator of the fraction, then add this to the numerator above the original denominator. Example: 3 2/5 = 17/5
To double a fraction double the numerator and keep the denominator unchanged.
By finding their lowest common denominator
16/7... A simple thumb rule is that if you have two and two sevenths, multiply the natural number with the denominator and add the product to the numerator to get the numerator of the fraction you want...the denominator remains the same. Example, two and one fourths is two times four, which is eight, and then you add one to it to get 9. That is the numerator of the fraction you want, while the denominator remains the same, hence you get 9/4.
no.

No because you have too multiply the numerator and denominator by the the same number to have an equivalent fraction.
To double a fraction double the numerator and keep the denominator unchanged.
To convert a mixed fraction to an improper fraction: Multiply the whole number by the denominator, and add the numerator. This will be the numerator of the result. Copy the denominator without changes to the denominator of the result.
By finding their lowest common denominator
Multiply the whole number by the denominator. Add the product to the numerator of the proper fraction. The sum is the numerator of the improper fraction. The denominator will stay the same.
multiply the denominator by the whole number then add the numerator and you have an improper fraction

Multiply the denominator by the whole number, then add the numerator by the answer you got from multiplying. Last, you slide the denominator over.
Because it tells you how much the fraction is out of.
