How do you add mixed fractions with another mixed fraction?
You convert them both to improper fractions by multiplying the denominators by the whole number and then adding the numerator to it. This number goes in the numerator and the denominator stays the same. Then you do this for the other fraction, making sure that the denominators of each fraction are equivalent. Then add the fractions as normal.
When adding or subtracting fractions do you change the numerator?
you subtract the numerator but the denominator stays the same.
Do you have to have the same denominator when you subtract fractions?
Yes, but the numerator is different,same as adding fractions
How do you add fractions with same numerator?
if it has a denominator
How can you add similar and dissimilar fractions?
Adding similar fractions is easy, but adding dissimilar ones requires an additional step. Before you begin, you must know a few important key terms. First, the number on the top of a fraction is called the numerator, while the number on the bottom of a fraction is called the denominator. Similar fractions have the same denominator, also called a common denominator. To add dissimilar fractions (fractions with different denominators), you must first convert the fractions so that the denominators are the same.
