Top number in a fraction is the numerator,
how many pieces we are dealing with
The bottom number in a fraction is the denominator,
how many pieces make up one whole
When fractions share the same number on the bottom they have a common denominator
To add & Subtract fractions with different denominators, you must find the common multiple/denominator

7. Fraction is part of a whole
To add & subtract fractions with unlike
denominators, convert to equivalent fractions with a common denominator, add the numerators,
and keep the same common denominator.
Lowest Common Multiple/Denominator:
Smallest number that is a multiple of
two or more numbers
Multiple is the result of multiplying a number
by an integer

Step 1: List the multiples of each
denominator until you have a common denominator
Step 2: convert each fraction to the
equivalent fraction with the same denominator
Step 3: add & subtract numerators,
keep the denominator the same

16. Reducing Fractions

17. Reducing Fractions Page 11 To simplify a fraction means to make the
fraction as small as possible
Equivalent Fractions have the same value
even though they may look different
Factors are number you can multiply
together to get another number
Greatest Common Factor is the largest
Number that divides evenly into two
or more numbers

18. Step 1 list the factors for both
the numerator and the denominator
Step 2 reduce the fraction by it’s
greatest common factor
Step 1 16: 1,16 2,8 4,4
24: 1,24 2,12 3,8 4,6 ÷
Step 2
