Addition and Subtraction of Fractions
To add fractions, make sure they have a common denominator. to make a common denominator you need to find a multiple that makes the number the same
For subtraction, the same rule applies; ensure the denominators are the same before subtracting the numerators. then divide by n to make the LCM
This process will allow you to accurately combine or compare the fractions, resulting in a simplified expression that can be easily understood. Once you have completed these steps, you can then simplify the resulting fraction if possible, ensuring that both the numerator and denominator are reduced to their lowest terms.
if you have a numerator more than a denominator then then turn the fraction into a mixed number and how we can do you can take 10 in 10/9 for example and then take 10-9 until you cant take the result of your subtraction as the whole number and the remaining part as the new numerator. In this case, you would have 1 as the whole number and 1 as the numerator, resulting in the mixed number 1 1/9.
