Frequently Asked Questions

How do I add fractions with different denominators?

Find the least common denominator (LCD), convert each fraction to have that denominator, then add the numerators. For example, 1/2 + 1/3: LCD is 6, so 3/6 + 2/6 = 5/6.

How do I simplify a fraction?

Find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the numerator and denominator, then divide both by the GCD. For example, 8/12: GCD is 4, so 8/12 simplifies to 2/3.
