Well, similar means the same and dissimilar means different, so the difference is that they are different.
Finding the lowest common denominator
The answer is...Similar fractions are fractions that has the same Denominator.Example:1/6+4/6Dissimilar fractions are fractions with different Denominator.Example:6/12-9/10
Dissimilar fractions are fractions that have different denominators.
Dissimilar fractions may or may not be proper fractions.
You can compare similar fractions by looking at their numerators. You can compare dissimilar fractions by converting them to similar fractions and looking at their numerators. You can convert a dissimilar fraction to a similar fraction by finding the least common denominator.
similar fraction is the same denominator and dissimilar fraction is cannot the same denominators
Similar fractions have the same denominator, dissimilar ones don't.
Equivalent fractions have the same value. 3/4 is equivalent to 6/8 Similar fractions have the same denominator. 3/5 is similar to 4/5 Dissimilar fractions have different denominators. 4/7 is dissimilar to 11/16
Well, similar means the same and dissimilar means different, so the difference is that they are different.
Finding the lowest common denominator
The answer is...Similar fractions are fractions that has the same Denominator.Example:1/6+4/6Dissimilar fractions are fractions with different Denominator.Example:6/12-9/10
You have to convert them to equivalent similar fractions (fractions with the same denominator) first.
Dissimilar fractions are fractions that have different denominators.
When their denominators are the same or different numbers.
Adding similar fractions is easy, but adding dissimilar ones requires an additional step. Before you begin, you must know a few important key terms. First, the number on the top of a fraction is called the numerator, while the number on the bottom of a fraction is called the denominator. Similar fractions have the same denominator, also called a common denominator. To add dissimilar fractions (fractions with different denominators), you must first convert the fractions so that the denominators are the same.
Dissimilar fractions may or may not be proper fractions.
