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 is three eighths plus one fourth?
The denominators are different, so find the equivalent fractions using the LCD , then add the fractions with the denominators.
How do you Add rational expressions with common denominators and binomial numerators?
If the denominator is the same, you just add the numerators - just as with plain numbers.
What is a unlike fraction?
You must have 2 fractions or more to have unlike fractions. They are fractions with different denominators such as 7/8 and 1/2. Like fractions would have the same denominator like 7/8 and 4/8.
