Adding and subtracting fractions can be very fun and easy. What you do is you look at the denominaters And if there the same then you just leave them the same then you add the numeraters. Then you ask yourself if you have to change anything. (is it a improper fraction or does it need to be simplified..."how low can you go?"
Subtracting fractions is almost the same but you subtract the numeraters instead of adding the numeraters.
You can add or subtract fractions by drawing a candy bar or pizza to see the number of pieces.
You can also use a fraction strip to compare fractions.
Learning about fractions is very fun. I like learning about fractions do you?
