3. Adding And Subtracting With Common Denominators

4.  the common denominators you multiply 4 and 5 together. 4x5=20 so 20 would be your common denominator. Since you multiplied the 5 by 4 you have to multiply 4 by 4. 4x4=16 so 16 is your new numerator. Since you multiplied 4 by 5 you have to multiply 3 by 5. 3x5=15 so that is the new numerator.
