They have to have a common denominator
Yes you make same denominator
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 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
Just add the fractions, and divide by 2. Before adding, you have to convert to a common denominator; in this case, you can use "4" as the common denominator.Just add the fractions, and divide by 2.

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.

you subtract the numerator but the denominator stays the same.
No only when adding or subtracting fractions a common denominator is needed
They have to have a common denominator
Yes you make same denominator
You need a common denominator for both.
They have to have the same denominator.
A Common Denominator
Yes.
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
I learned to always change the denominators before adding or subtracting the numerators. You must always have a common denominator before adding or subtracting.
A common denominator is needed when adding or subtracting fractions of different denominators.
