Adding and Subtracting fractions when the

denominator is different
Step 1: Make the denominators the same by finding
the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of their
denominators. This step is exactly the same as
finding the Least Common Denominator (LCD).

Rewrite each fraction into its equivalent fraction
with a denominator which is equal to the Least
Common Multiple that you found in step #2.
Step 3: Now, add or subtract the "new" fractions
from step #3. Always reduce the answer to its
lowest terms.

Both the teacher and students will simplify the

following fractions 1/5 + 1/2,1/2 + 1/4 and 1/2 - 1/3
