1/2 and 2/4 ? If both fractions are in their reduced forms, there can be no solution where the denominators are different.
Add them together and divide by 2.

To add fractions the denominators must be the same.When the denominators are the same, just add the numerators keeping the denominator for the result, and then simplify the result, eg 1/8 + 3/8 = 1+3/8 = 4/8 = 1/2;If the denominators are different, make the fractions into equivalent fractions with the same denominator, and then use rule 1, eg 1/3 + 1/2 = 2/6 + 3/6 = 2+3/6 = 5/64/7 + 2/7=NEVER ADD THE DENOMINATORS!So you add 4 + 2= 6Then put 6/7 Because you keep the same Denominator.Easy now you can add fractions with the same denominators! :)Hope this helps!
