where do u get the numarator from adding fractions
if the denominators in the sum are equal, you get the numerator by just adding them together
no damontors are differnt then were does the numarator come from]
the numerator of added fractions is the original numerators added together over the starting denominator
no differnt denomanators how do we get those after U FIND THE LCD
once you have a least common denominator you just add the numerators. simple as that :) but make sure the denominators are equal
Find the Least Common Denominator (LCD) of the fractions. Rename the fractions to have the LCD. Add the numerators of the fractions. And simplify the Fraction. Ex: Find the sum of 2/9 and 3/12. Determine the Greatest Common Factor of 9 and 12 which is 3. Divide one of the denominators by the GCF and multiply the answer by the other denominator (9/3=3, 3*12=36). Rename the fractions to use the Least Common Denominator(2/9=8/36, 3/12=9/36). The result is 8/36 + 9/36. Add the numerators and put the sum over the LCD = 17/36. Simplify the fraction if possible.
