1/2 + 1/3=
You will find an explanation in your math text, but this is how I do it:
You find the lowest common denominator.
We will use 2 and 3 in our example.
In our case we can just multiply the two together to get 6 But it isn't always that easy, just a good place to start.
Then you take the number over the 2 and multiply by 3 so you get a result of something over 6.
Then you take the number over the 3 and multiply by 2 and end up with something over 6.
So we end up with 3/6 and 2/6
so 3/6 + 2/6 = ?

Yes.
How do you subtract improper fractions with different denominators?
It's the same thing as adding or subtracting normal fractions - just make sure both fractions have the same denominators (by either multiplying the denominators or simplifying the fraction - whichever the question needs).
How do you subtract fraction if the if the numerators is the same?
You first have to convert the fractions so that the denominators are the same.

How does using fraction strips with like denominators make it possible to add fractions with unlike denominators?
because they are the same number
What is a way to compare a fraction when the denominators are the same?
When the denominators are the same, whichever one has the greater numerator is greater.

How do you subtract fraction if the if the numerators is the same?
You first have to convert the fractions so that the denominators are the same.
What must a fraction have before we add before we can add them?
They must have the same denominators.
How do you add and subtract unlike denominators?
you make them have like denominators by multiplying so many times that they have the same denominators or you can make them have like denominators by multiplying the two
How do you determine what fraction is greater than the other?
Find the least common denominator and convert them to equivalent fractions so that the denominators are the same. Choose the one with the greatest denominator.
