Answer:

  1. 3/4 + 5/2 = 3/4 + 10/4 = (3+10)/4 = 13/4

3. 4/15 + 4/5 = 4/15 + 12/15 = (4+12)/15 = 16/15

5. 2/3 + 7/10 = 20/30 + 21/30 = (20+21)/30 = 41/30

To add fractions with different denominators you must find the highest common factor (the highest number they both go into).

For 1 - The highest common factor is 8, 2x4 = 8, 4x2 = 8

now, whatever you do to the bottom, you must do to the top.

So:

3 x 2 = 6 and 5 x 4 = 20

Therefore, your answer would be 6/8 + 20/8

You do that for the rest of them as well, do you get it?
