Adding Fractions (Same Denominator)

To add fractions with the same denominator, simply add the numerators and keep the denominator the same.

Adding Fractions (Different Denominators)

To add fractions with different denominators, find a common denominator by multiplying both the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the appropriate value. Then, add the numerators.

Subtracting Fractions (Same Denominator)

To subtract fractions with the same denominator, simply subtract the numerators and keep the denominator the same.

Multiplying Fractions

To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together and the denominators together.

Study Notes

Fractions - Addition

  • If denominators are the same, add the numerators
  • Example: 1/5 + 3/5 = 4/5

Fractions - Addition (Different Denominators)

  • Find the least common denominator (LCD)
  • Multiply the numerator and denominator by the same number to get the LCD
  • Add the resulting numerators
  • Example: 1/2 + 3/7 = 7/14 + 6/14 = 13/14

Fractions - Subtraction

  • If denominators are the same, subtract the numerators
  • Example: 8/9 - 5/9 = 3/9 = 1/3

Fractions - Subtraction (Different Denominators)

  • Find the least common denominator (LCD)
  • Multiply the numerator and denominator by the same number to get the LCD
  • Subtract the resulting numerators
  • Example: 3/9 - 1/3 = 1/3 - 1/3 = 0

Fractions - Multiplication

  • Multiply the numerators and denominators
  • Simplify the resulting fraction
  • Example: 1/3 x 3/5 = 3/15 = 1/5

Fractions - Division

  • Change the division sign to multiplication
  • Flip the second fraction (reciprocal)
  • Multiply the fractions
  • Example: 1/4 ÷ 5/4 = 1/4 x 4/5 = 4/20 = 1/5
