What did you learn from adding and subtracting fractions?
I learned to always change the denominators before adding or subtracting the numerators. You must always have a common denominator before adding or subtracting.
How are adding fractions different?
When adding or subtracting fractions their denominators must be the same
When adding or subtracting fractions you must get a?
A Common Denominator
What must you do first before adding or subtracting unlike fractions?
you must make the fractions equivalent and with the same denomenator
How is adding fractions like adding whole numbers... How is it different?
Similarities: the sum does not depend on which number you start with (distributive)Differences: you must find a common denominator for the fractions (whole numbers have a common denominator [1]

Why must you find a common denominator before adding fractions?
You can only add like to like. There is no mechanism for adding different types of fraction.
