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.
You basically have to learn separately how to do different things with fractions, including finding a common denominator; converting fractions to a different denominator; simplifying fractions; adding and subtracting fractions; multiplying fractions; dividing fractions.

Yes, you must convert both fractions to the same denominator to add them. Now... Do the rest of your homework yourself!
adding fractions is like adding a WHOLE lot of parts of numbers
When adding or subtracting fractions their denominators must be the same
Ensure that the denominators are the same when adding or subtracting fractions.

What is the definition of Adding and Subtracting Like Fractions
Mixed numbers can be converted to improper fractions. Then, it is exactly the same as adding proper ones.
adding fractions
For adding or substracting fractions first of all we should calculate the LCM( Lowest Common Multiplier) of the denominators in both of the fractions.
Before adding or subtracting two fractions they are converted into like fractions. Explain with examples why this is necessary.

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.
