No.
If the fractions have the same denominator, add and subtract the numerators as if the denominators weren't there and put the result over that denominator. Reduce if possible. If the fractions have different denominators, find the LCM of the denominators and convert the fractions to equivalent fractions with like denominators. Then add and subtract the numerators as if the denominators weren't there and put the result over that denominator. Reduce if possible.
In fractions, you can NEVER add or subtract
Because you can't add or subtract fractions that have different denominators. Making them like fractions, by multiplying so the denominators are the same, you can add and/or subtract them.
You cannot add or subtract fractions with different denominators. If the denominators are different then you need to work with equivalent fractions.
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.
Because to add fractions, the denominators must be equal.

first make denominators the same and add.

you make fractions equivalent denominators, you add the numerators and put it over the denominator
To add fractions, you cannot simply add the numberators and add the denominators. To add fractions, they must first have the same denominator. Once they have the same denominator, you can then simply add the numerators.
You need the same denominators to add fractions because fractions represent parts of a whole, and having a common denominator ensures that you are combining equivalent parts. When the denominators are the same, you can simply add the numerators while keeping the denominator constant. This maintains the correct proportion of the total value. If the denominators are different, you must first find a common denominator to accurately sum the fractions.
yes of coarse! only if you are adding fractions that is.
