Adding like terms can be like adding fractions. You can only add fractions with a common denomonator. You can only combine terms together if they are like. Think of like terms as denomonators. You can only add if they are like.
Change them to like fractions and proceed.
The answer depends on how fluently you can work with fractions.
First, change it so that the two fractions have the same denominator (by changing the fractions into equivalent fractions). Once the two fractions have the same denominator, it is simply a case of subtracting the numerators, leaving the denominator the same. Finally, reduce the fraction to its lowest terms (if possible).
The terms "even" and "odd" are defined for integers, not for fractions.

Yes, you must.

Yes providing you change the fractions into decimals or change the decimals into fractions
It is already in lowest terms.
Equivalent fractions are fractions that are the same amount but they have different numbers.
You multiply out brackets, remove common factors from fractions, combine like terms.
When reducing fractions to their lowest terms divide the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor
