I have no idea what andminous means!

Two fractions are similar if they have the same denominator. So, given the two fractions p/r and q/r, their sum is (p+q)/r. You need to check whether or not this can be simplified.


If they are dissimilar (not disimilar!) fractions then you need to rename them first so that they have the same denominator. Some schools insist that you use the least common denominator (or the least common multiple), but this is not necessary. For two fractions, simple cross-multiplication can be easier. Thus a/b + c/d = ad/bd + bc/bd = (ad + bc)/bd. Again, you need to check whether or not this can be simplified.

How do you add and subtract disimilar fraction?

Give them a common denomiator.... For example - suppose you had the sum 1/3+1/4... Multiply both fractions to a common denominator - 1/3 = 4/12 and 1/4 = 3/12. Now - simply add the numerators together - 4 + 3 = 7. So - your answer would be 7/12

You can either add the fractional parts and, if required, convert the answer to a mixed fraction and then add the integer part to the integer parts of the two original numbers; or change both numbers to top-heavy (or improper) fractions, add them and then convert the answer to a mixed fraction.
