When you add two fractions that have the same denominator, you just need to add the4 3numerators and keep the denominator the same. For example,55 5. Rememberthat if you have an improper fraction (i.e., the top number is larger than the bottomnumber), then you need to change this to a mixed number by dividing the top by the1bottom. For example,Question 3Add ; and 2 and give your answer as a mixed fraction.

Since our fractions have the same denominator, we get


(6)/(4)+(3)/(4)\questeq(6+3)/(4)=(9)/(4)

and we must convert this result into a mixed fraction form. We can do this by taking the result of the division and the rest, that is,

then, the result is the final option.
