Subtraction How to subtract with the same denominator! Subtract the top numbers Keep denominator the same Simplify if needed Examples: ⅚ - ⅙ = 4/6 7/12 – 4/12 = 3/12 Back to the Main Menu

Addition How to add with the same denominator! Make sure denominators are the same Add top numbers Simplify if needed! Examples: 1/4 + 3/4 = 4/4  then simplified is 1! 2/5 + 1/5 = 3/5 Back to the Main Menu

Equal to or Equivalent Equivalent means same, so equivalent fractions means the same fraction. See these examples and learn how these fractions are the same! Examples: 1. 1/2 = 5/10  these are equal because 5 is half of 10 and the other fraction is 1/2 so if you reduce 5/10 it would be 1/2! 2.3/6 = 4/8  these are equal because if reduced they equal 1/2! 3.4/6 = 8/12  these are equal because if you reduce them they both equal 2/3!
