1 Copyright Scott Storla 2015 Adding and Subtracting Fractions

2 Copyright Scott Storla 2015 You can only add and subtract Like Terms Terms are like if they count the same unit.

3 Copyright Scott Storla 2015 For fractions we divide a unit of distance 1 into pieces and the distance of one of those pieces becomes the new unit. 0 1 0 1 0

4 Copyright Scott Storla 2015 The denominator tells us the size of the unit.
