Do you add and subtract like and unlike fractions in the same way?
no, to add and subtract like and unlike fractions the denominator has to be the same,
How do you add the dissimilar fraction?
You have to convert them to equivalent similar fractions (fractions with the same denominator) first.
How do you add two fractions that have like denominators?
In fractions, you can NEVER add or subtract
Why are two fractions converted into like fractions?
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.
To add and subtract fractions less than 1 you add or subtract only the what?
Numerators
How do you add or subtract dissimilar fractions with or without regrouping?
What is the answer for 8 1/3 - 5 2/6

You first convert them to similar fractions, i.e., to fractions that have the same denominator.* Step one: find a common denominator.* Step two: convert both fractions to equivalent fractions that have that denominator.
What you need to add or subtract fractions?
You need a common denominator in order to add or subtract fractions.
What are the rules of the dissimilar fractions?
I assume you mean, with different denominators. If you want to add the fractions, subtract them, or compare them (determine which one is greater), you have to convert them to similar fractions (fractions with the same denominator) first. Converting to similar fractions is not necessary, and usually doesn't even help, if you want to multiply or divide fractions.
Meaning of adding of dissimilar fractions?
Adding dissimilar fractions involves finding a common denominator for the fractions before adding them together. This common denominator is the least common multiple of the denominators of the fractions being added. Once the fractions have the same denominator, you can add the numerators together while keeping the denominator the same. Finally, simplify the resulting fraction if possible by reducing it to its simplest form.
