When 2 or more fractions have same denominator?
When two or more fractions have the same denominator, it means they have a common base for their fractional parts. This allows for easier comparison and addition or subtraction of the fractions, as the denominators are already aligned. By having the same denominator, the fractions can be easily manipulated by adding or subtracting the numerators while keeping the denominator constant. This simplifies operations involving fractions with common denominators.
Why do you need a common denominator?
Common Denominator means that the denominators in two (or more) fractions are common, or the same. The common denominator is important because before you can add or subtract fractions, the fractions need to have a common denominator.Sometimes fractions have different denominators, like 2/3 and 3/4. If you want to add or subtract them, they need to have the same denominator. In order to do that, you find a common denominator which is the same thing as a common multiple, only with denominators.
What is the same about two fractions that are like fraction?
They have the same denominators.
How do you find the sum of two mixed numbers?
To find the sum of two mixed numbers, turn the mixed numbers into improper fractions (multiply the base with the denominator and add the numerator), then add the two fractions. To add the two fractions, find the LCD (lowest common denominator) and add the two numerators, but leave the denominators the same.
What is the meaning of related fractions?
Two fractions are related when the denominator of one of the fraction is a multiple of the denominator of the other fraction. (Don't confuse with Like fractions)
When two or more fractions have the same denominator it is called what?
Common denominator
What is the denominator in the same in two or more fractions?
That's a common denominator.
Denominator that is the same in two or more fractions?
That's a "common" denominator. "Common" means "same for both" or "same for all".
What are like denominators?
That means that two or more fractions have the SAME denominator.
What is the rule for subtracting 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).
Does the denominator have to be the same when adding a fraction?
When adding two or more unlike fractions, yes.
How do you change a fraction so they have the same denominator?
First, find a common denominator for the two (or more) fractions. Then, for each fraction, multiply numerator and denominator by the same number (different numbers for different fractions, though), to convert to the common denominator.

What happens when you have two fractions that have the same denominator?
Nothing actually happens. You are now in a position where the fractions may be added or subtracted more easily but that is all.
What is the least common multiple of the denominator of two or more fractions is their?
least common denominator
How do you find the difference of two fractions with the same denominator?
Subtract as if there were no denominators.
