  1. 10.4 Addition and Subtraction: Like Denominators • Goal: to add and subtract rational expressions with like denominators

  2. To add and subtract rational expressions with like denominators… • Keep the denominator and add or subtract the numerators (just like adding like terms) • Remember to simplify your final answer

  3. What does it mean to be simplified? • Your answer has to be completely factored (the numerator and denominator) any common factors must be canceled out

  4. Add & Subtract Rational Expressions When the denominators are the same, add or subtract the numerators and write the sum or difference over the common denominator.
