let us say you want to add two fractions that don'tshare a common denominator. what we need to do first is that we need these two fractionsto have a common denominator. a way of doing that, that will always work for you, is thefollowing. the first step is to realise that five andthree are important.what we need to do is
How To Add Fractions Youtube, multiply this fraction with this denominatoron top and bottom to create an equivalent fraction which we can use. one, multipliedby five and three multiplied by five is the first step. and in the second fraction, we need to multiplythis numerator and this denominator by this
denominator to give us another equivalentfraction that will work for us. four times three and five times three. now as you cansee, three times five and five times three are going to give us the same denominatorof fifteen. so this new version of our original additionis the following. five divided by fifteen plus twelve over fifteen. and now we are leftwith a problem, which is simple to solve, because both fractions have a common denominator. five fifteens plus twelve fifteens, rememberthe denominator does not change and we only add the numerator. to give us seventeen dividedby fifteen. and this is how to add fractions with different denominators.
