all you have to do is follow the same algorithm for adding a pair of fractions together. the main step is to find common denominators between the two. to do this, you need to find the least common multiple. another way you could find a common denominator is just by changing them into decimals, and adding them normally like whole numbers with the decimals lined up correctly.
Simplify them.
We can only add or subtract fractions if they have the same denominators
Subtract the numerators as we normally subtract them and then divide the resultant by the denominator. It's just simple like that.
You first convert them to similar fractions, i.e., to fractions that have the same denominator.* Step one: find a common denominator.* Step two: convert both fractions to equivalent fractions that have that denominator.
Yes the bottom has to be the same when subtracting fractions. The bottom (or denominator) tells you what you're working with. You cannot subtract thirds from halves just as you cannot subtract oranges from tissues.
it stay the same when you subtract fractions and when you add fractions.
Make the fractions equivalent then subtract
multiply the fractions until they have common denominators and then subtract them
Subtracting fractions is similar to adding fractions. If the fractions have the same denominator, you subtract the numerators. If the fractions have different denominators, you have to convert to a common denominator first.Subtracting fractions is similar to adding fractions.

You need a common denominator in order to add or subtract fractions.
You don't
subtracting fractions
It means you have to subtract fractions.
Because you can't add or subtract fractions that have different denominators. Making them like fractions, by multiplying so the denominators are the same, you can add and/or subtract them.
no, to add and subtract like and unlike fractions the denominator has to be the same,
Just subtract the numerators and copy the denominator
by finding the common denominator of the fractions
