You firstly find the lowest common denominator (bottom number of the fraction) and convert the fractions to this, e.g. 1/3 + 1/6 = 2/6 + 1/6 The next step is to simply add the numerators (top number of the fraction: e.g. 2/6 + 1/6 = 3/6 Finally you should tidy the fraction up by reducing it to its lowest form by dividing the denominator and numerators by the same number e.g. divide by 3 - 3/6 = 1/2
