1 + 2

3 6

Fractions of the same types can be added

we must change one third to sixths

(we do this by multiplying top and bottom numbers of fraction 1/3 by 2)

Therefore 1/3 is the same as 2/6

2/6 + 2/6= 4/6

2 sixths plus 2 sixths is 4 sixths

( the 4 and 6 have a common factor 2)

(4 divide by 2 we get 2)

( 6 divide by 2 we get 3)

the fraction 4/6 when reduced we get 2/3

two thirds
