Like Fractions
Addition or subtraction of fractions require "like" fractions: that is, fractions with the same denominator.
Similiar fractions are fractions that have the same denominator.
They are called like or similar fractions.
numerator by numerator, denominator by denominator
Like Fractions
Like fractions are the fractions which have the same denominator and unlike fractions are the fractions which do not have the same denominator.
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.

Regular fractions are the fractions with a numerator that is less than the denominator and irregular fractions are fractions with a denominator less than the numerator.

By finding the lowest common denominator of the fractions.
The two types of fractions are proper fractions, in which the numerator is smaller than the denominator, and improper fractions, in which the numerator is equal to or larger than the denominator.
They are called like or similar fractions.
You don't need a common denominator to divide fractions.
To compare fractions, convert them to a common denominator - in this case, a denominator of 8 will work.To compare fractions, convert them to a common denominator - in this case, a denominator of 8 will work.To compare fractions, convert them to a common denominator - in this case, a denominator of 8 will work.To compare fractions, convert them to a common denominator - in this case, a denominator of 8 will work.
You first convert them to similar fractions, i.e., to fractions that have the same denominator.* Step one: find a common denominator.* Step two: convert both fractions to equivalent fractions that have that denominator.
