How do you solve all fractions problems?
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.
What are like and unlike fractions?
Like fractions are the fractions which have the same denominator and unlike fractions are the fractions which do not have the same denominator.
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.
Fractions can be added and subtracted only if they're fractions?
We can only add or subtract fractions if they have the same denominators
When adding or subtracting two fractions with denominators that are not equal what is the first step you take?
When adding or subtracting fractions with different denominators, the first step is to find a common denominator. This involves finding the least common multiple (LCM) of the two denominators. Once you have a common denominator, you can then add or subtract the numerators of the fractions accordingly.
