Adding and Subtracting Fraction Notes Ex: 1 / 8 + 3 / 8 1.If the denominators are the same, add or subtract the numerators only. 1 + 3 8 2.Simplify if possible. 4 = __ 8 http://www.xpmath.com/forums/arcade.php?do=play&gameid=34 http://www.xpmath.com/forums/arcade.php?do=play&gameid=35

When you have different denominators: Ex: 7 / 8 - 1 / 2 1.Find the LCD for both denominators. The LCD of 8 and 2 is ___. 2.Write equivalent fractions using the LCD. 7 = __ 1 = __ 8 8 2 8 3.Add or subtract. Write answer in simplest form. 7 - 4 = __ 8 8 8 Adding and Subtracting Fraction Notes

What if you need to borrow? How do you know? 2 3 / 8 - 7 / 8 Make sure you have common denominators. Take one “whole” away from the whole number, then add this one “whole” to the other side as a fraction. 2 3 / 8 = 3 / 8 + 8/ 8 = 1 11 / 8 Subtract. Adding and Subtracting Fraction Notes
