Remember
Fractions consist of two numbers.
The top number is called the
numerator. The bottom number is
called the denominator.
To add or subtract like fractions,
simply add or subtract the
numerators and write the sum over
the common denominator.
Before you can add or subtract
fractions with different
denominators, you must first find
equivalent fractions with the same
denominator.
