To solve fractions, you MUST HAVE THE SAME DENOMINATORS WHEN DEALING WITH ADDITION AND SUBTRACTION.

Answer:

To solve fractions, you MUST HAVE THE SAME DENOMINATORS WHEN DEALING WITH ADDITION AND SUBTRACTION.

Explanation:

For example, 2/3 + 3/6

The denominators in this case have a common denominator which is 6.

All you have to do is multiply the 2/3 by 2 in the numerator and the denominator. Once you do, you'll get 4/6 which you could then add to 3/6 to get 7/6 which would equal 1 1/6 or 7/6 either is fine.

Hope this helps! :)
