Adding Fractions with Like Denominators
Definition
- Like denominators: Fractions with the same denominator
Rule
- To add fractions with like denominators, add the numerators and keep the same denominator
- The resulting fraction will have the same denominator as the original fractions
Formula
- a/b + c/b = (a + c)/b
Example
- 1/4 + 2/4 = (1 + 2)/4 = 3/4
Key Points
- The denominators must be the same for this rule to apply
- The numerators are added together, not the denominators
- The resulting fraction will have the same denominator as the original fractions
