Why must denominators be the same when adding or subtracting fractions?
You have to have like forms to add them or subtract one from the other if the answer is to be a single form quantity. You cannot subtract 2 oranges from a dozen apples. You first would have to convert the apples to mush, then subtract the equivalent of 2 oranges worth of mush, and then see how much mush you have left. If you added 2 oranges to a dozen apples, you would first convert both to a common form, mush, then add the apple mush and the orange mush to see how much fruit mush you have. Similarly, with fractions, you have to convert them to a common form, referred to as their common denominator, then you can add or subtract to find the result in their common form. If you do not convert the fractions to a common form, or denominator, the resulting answer will look like the original question and not be an answer at all.

The fruit bowl is 12 apples and 13 bananas the rest of the fruit is oranges what fraction of the fruit is oranges?
It depend upon how many oranges there are, which gives the total number of pieces of fruit in the bowl. Let the number of oranges be x, then the total number of fruit is 12 + 13 + x = x +25 Thus the fraction of the fruit that is oranges is number_of_oranges/total_number_of_fruit = x/(x+25) If you do not know the number of oranges x, but do know the total number of fruit in the bowl (call it t), then the number of oranges = t - (12 + 23) = t - 25, giving the fraction of oranges as (t-25)/t. The above formulae give a general form of the fraction of the fruit that are oranges; if you know the number of oranges, or the total number of fruit, you can substitute for x or t in the above formulae to get the fraction for the quantity you have as you have not told us them.
