Simple. If you find that one of the denom. goes into the other one, evalute them so the denom. are the same and their numerators are possibly different. Example:
7/42 + 3/6
3/6 = 21/42
21+7=28
ANSWER: 28/42

Multiply or divide both the numeraters and the denominators the same using GCF.Then look at the numeraters. Good luck!!!!!!!
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.
The denominators are different, so find the equivalent fractions using the LCD , then add the fractions with the denominators.
Subtract the numerators as we normally subtract them and then divide the resultant by the denominator. It's just simple like that.
You need to change the denominators so they are the same ( by timesing them together) E.g. 1/7 1/2 7x2=14
