    This document discusses how to add fractions. It explains that when adding like fractions, you add the numerators and keep the denominators the same. When adding unlike fractions, you first find the fraction with the lowest denominator. Then you calculate the least common multiple of the denominators and multiply the fractions to make the denominators the same before adding the numerators.

    contents!
     like fractions
     unlike fractions
    like fractions!
    3/5 + 4/5
    1. Add the numerators together!

    3/5 + 4/5 = 7/
    2. Keep the denominators the same!

    3/5 + 4/5 = 7/5


    unlike fractions!
    2/14 + 1/7 = ?
    1. Get the fraction with the lowest denominator.

    1/7
    2. Find the lcm. And then times the fractions by how many times you need for the denominator to be the
    same. REMEMBER: WHATEVER YOU DO TO THE TOP YOU HAVE TO DO TO THE BOTTOM

    1x2
    --------
    7x2
    3. Add the numerators.

    2/14 + 2/14 = 4/14
