How do you check you math with adding fractions?
When adding or subtracting fractions first make sure that the denominators are the same if they aren't then find the lowest common denominator and alter the fractions accordingly
How do you add improper fractions?
If the denominators are different, find a common denominator, convert the fractions to equivalent fractions with the same denominator, proceed with adding the numerators, put that total over the denominator, simplify if possible. If the denominators are the same, skip the conversion, proceed with adding the numerators, put that total over the denominator, simplify if possible.
When 2 or more fractions have same denominator?
If you are adding or subtracting fractions with the same denominator, you can add or subtract the numerators and keep the denominator the same. 1/8 + 3/8+ 3/8 = 7/8, for example
When adding or subtracting fractions do you have to have the numerator the same or denominator?
The denominators must be the same, the numerators can be different.
What are fractions that have the same denominator called?
Like Fractions
How do you minnous fractions?
Subtracting fractions is similar to adding fractions. If the fractions have the same denominator, you subtract the numerators. If the fractions have different denominators, you have to convert to a common denominator first.Subtracting fractions is similar to adding fractions.

What is the secret to adding fractions?
When adding or subtacting fractions make sure that the denominators are of the same values if they are not then find the lowest common denominator.
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 check you math with adding fractions?

Before adding or subtracting Why are fractions turned into like fractions?
They have to have the same denominator.
How is adding like fractions and adding unlike fractions the same?
If the denominators are not the same, then you have to use equivalent fractions which do have a common denominator . To do this, you need to find the least common multiple (LCM) of the two denominators. To add fractions with unlike denominators, rename the fractions with a common denominator. Then add and simplify.
What is the rule in adding fractions having the same denominator?
Sum of the fractions = sum of numerators divided by their common denominator. Adding Fractions rule implies to addition of fractions having same denominator and as well as adding fractions with different denominators. So rule for adding fractions having the same denominator is add the numerators and simplify For example : 3/5 + 2/5 + 9/5 = (3 + 2 + 9)/5 [add the numerators] = 14/5
Does the denominator have to be the same when adding a fraction?
When adding two or more unlike fractions, yes.
How do you solve a fraction problem when you don't have the same denominator?
If you are adding or subtracting unlike fractions, convert them to equivalent fractions with a common denominator.
When adding two fractions with unlike denominator's which of these steps is the first step?
The first step is to make the denominators the same.
How do you add improper fractions?
If the denominators are different, find a common denominator, convert the fractions to equivalent fractions with the same denominator, proceed with adding the numerators, put that total over the denominator, simplify if possible. If the denominators are the same, skip the conversion, proceed with adding the numerators, put that total over the denominator, simplify if possible.
Can you simplify fractions when adding?
Yes but they all must have the same common denominator
