If you are adding or subtracting unlike fractions, convert them to equivalent fractions with a common denominator.

How do you you add a fractions when the denominator is not the same?

ok this is like 5th grade math but you have to multiply. Say it is 1/4+3/8. You have to multiply the lower denominator which in this case is 4 to get it to 8. Which you get 4x2=8 right. Well whatever you do to the denominator you have to do to the numerator. so the numerator is 1 in the fraction of 1/4 and you get 1x2=2. So then your problem is 2/8+3/8= 5/8. If your worried that the denominator will not go into it dont because you will never get a problem like that
