Adding and Subtracting with Like Denominators Here are the steps: • Look at the two fractions. Do the denominators match? If yes, keep going. If no, click here for steps for adding fractions with unlike denominators • Add or subtract the numerators (top numbers). • Slide the denominator into the answer. It stays the same. • You are finished. If done correctly, you should have an answer that has the same denominator as the two original fractions and the numerator should be the original numerators added or subtracted. Main Menu Try Some!
