The \u201cwhole\u201d is referred to as the <strong>denominator<\/strong> and is written below the division line: <\/p>\n<table class=\"ATable\" style=\"margin: auto; border: none;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border-right: 0px; border-left:0px; border-top:0px; border-bottom:0px; width:30%\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center; border-right: 0px; border-left:0px; border-top:0px; width:40%\">numerator<\/td>\n<td style=\"border-right: 0px; border-left:0px; border-top:0px; border-bottom:0px; width:30%\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border-right: 0px; border-left:0px; border-top:0px; border-bottom:0px; width:30%\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center; border-right: 0px; border-left:0px; border-top:0px; border-bottom:0px; width:40%\">denominator<\/td>\n<td style=\"border-right: 0px; border-left:0px; border-top:0px; border-bottom:0px; width:30%\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nWhen combining fractions by addition or subtraction, the work is done only with the numerators. The denominator does not change. For example, suppose there were seven rolls in a basket on the dinner table. You ate one and your brother ate two. What is the fraction that represents the number of rolls that were eaten by you and your brother?  <\/p>\n<p>You can probably conceptualize this example of adding fractions pretty quickly. You simply add up the number of rolls eaten by you and your brother and divide by the total number of rolls that were on the table at the start of dinner.  Remember, the denominator remains the same. \\(\\frac{1}{7}+ \\frac{2}{7}\\), which can be seen as \\(\\frac{1+2}{7}\\), equals \\(\\frac{3}{7}\\). The fraction \\(\\frac{3}{7}\\) represents the number of rolls eaten by you and your brother.<\/p>\n<div class=\"examplesentence\" style=\"font-size: 110%;\">\\(\\frac{1}{7}+\\frac{2}{7}=\\frac{1+2}{7}=\\frac{3}{7}\\)<\/div>\n<p>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nSubtracting fractions can be thought of in the same way.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s say you and your friends are playing a game of cards. You are holding three of the four kings that are in a deck of cards. You throw down the King of Hearts on the next play. What fraction represents the number of kings in your hand now?<\/p>\n<p>Because there are a total of four kings in a deck of cards, the fraction, 34, represents the three kings that you had in your hand to start with. If you give away the King of Hearts, then the numerator of this fraction decreases by one. The fraction of the kings that you have in your hand changes as follows: \\(\\frac{3}{4}- \\frac{1}{4}\\), which can be seen as \\(\\frac{3-1}{4}\\), equals \\(\\frac{2}{4}\\), which simplifies to one half.<\/p>\n<div class=\"examplesentence\" style=\"font-size: 100%;\">\\(\\frac{3}{4}-\\frac{1}{4}=\\frac{3-1}{4}=\\frac{2}{4} \\text{  or  } \\frac{1}{2}\\)<\/div>\n<p>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nThese examples are pretty straightforward because the denominators of the fractions being added or subtracted are the same. <\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"How_to_Add_Fractions_with_Different_Denominators\" class=\"m-toc-anchor\"><\/span>How to Add Fractions with Different Denominators<\/h2>\n<p>\nIf denominators are not the same, there is a bit more work involved.  Specifically, one or both of the fractions must be algebraically adjusted to create <strong>common denominators<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Example:<\/p>\n<div class=\"examplesentence\" style=\"font-size: 110%;\">\\(\\frac{2}{5}+\\frac{3}{10}\\)<\/div>\n<p>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nLike I said before, these fractions cannot be added until they share a common denominator. In fact, the denominator must be the smallest value that both denominators can divide into evenly. This value is known as the <strong>least common denominator (LCD)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>When considering the denominators 5 and 10, it becomes clear that 10 is the smallest number that both 5 and 10 can divide into evenly.  This means that we will have to algebraically adjust the first fraction so that the denominator becomes 10.  We do this by multiplying both the numerator and denominator. The rules for multiplying fractions require multiplying the numerator times the numerator and the denominator times the denominator: \\(2 \\times 2=4\\) and \\(2 \\times 5=10\\).<\/p>\n<div class=\"examplesentence\" style=\"font-size: 110%;\">\\(\\frac{2}{2}\\times \\frac{2}{5}=\\frac{4}{10}\\)<\/div>\n<p>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This work creates the fraction \\(\\frac{4}{10}\\), which is equivalent to the original fraction, \\(\\frac{2}{5}\\). At this point, the fractions with common denominators can be added: \\(\\frac{4}{10}+ \\frac{3}{10}\\), which can be seen as \\(\\frac{4+3}{10}\\), equals \\(\\frac{7}{10}\\).<\/p>\n<div class=\"examplesentence\" style=\"font-size: 110%;\">\\(\\frac{4}{10}+\\frac{3}{10}=\\frac{4+3}{10}=\\frac{7}{10}\\)<\/div>\n<p>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nThis last example requires you to adjust both fractions to achieve a common denominator. Let\u2019s work through this one together, then I\u2019ll give you one to try on your own.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"How_to_Subtract_Fractions_with_Different_Denominators\" class=\"m-toc-anchor\"><\/span>How to Subtract Fractions with Different Denominators<\/h2>\n<div class=\"examplesentence\" style=\"font-size: 110%;\">\\(\\frac{5}{8}-\\frac{1}{6}\\)<\/div>\n<p>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nSo, first things first: What is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mometrix.com\/academy\/greatest-common-factor\/\" class=\"ylist\">least common multiple<\/a> of 6 and 8? 24. Because 24 divided by 8 is 3, we will have to adjust the first fraction by multiplying both the numerator and denominator by 3. \\(24 \\div 6=4\\), so we will have to multiply the numerator and denominator of the second fraction by four.<\/p>\n<div class=\"examplesentence\" style=\"font-size: 110%;\">\\(\\frac{3}{3} \\times \\frac{5}{8}-\\frac{4}{4} \\times \\frac{1}{6}\\)<\/div>\n<p>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nThese adjustments create equivalent fractions that have a common denominator of 24.  Once that is taken care of, the numerators can be subtracted as follows:<\/p>\n<div class=\"examplesentence\" style=\"font-size: 110%;\">\\(\\frac{15}{24}-\\frac{4}{24}=\\frac{11}{24}\\)<\/div>\n<p>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nAlright, now here\u2019s one for you to try. Pause the video and see if you can solve it.<\/p>\n<div class=\"examplesentence\" style=\"font-size: 110%;\">\\(\\frac{3}{5}+\\frac{3}{7}\\)<\/div>\n<p>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nHow did you do? Let\u2019s walk through it. The least common multiple of 5 and 7 is 35.  Adjust the first fraction by multiplying the numerator and denominator by 7, and adjust the second fraction by multiplying the numerator and denominator by 5. Once the denominators match, add the numerators. This gives us \\(\\frac{36}{35}\\)!<\/p>\n<div class=\"examplesentence\" style=\"font-size: 110%;\">\\(\\frac{7}{7} \\times \\frac{3}{5}+\\frac{5}{5} \\times \\frac{3}{7}\\)&nbsp;<br \/>\n\\(\\frac{21}{35}+\\frac{15}{35}=\\frac{36}{35}\\)<\/div>\n<p>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nLet\u2019s recap before we go. Whether you are adding or subtracting fractions, remember that the denominator will always stay the same, and sometimes, you will have to create a common denominator and find the least common multiple before you can proceed with the problem.<\/p>\n<p>I hope this review was helpful!

The common denominator will be the least common multiple of 3 and 4. The least common multiple of 3 and 4 is 12, so the fractions should be rewritten with 12 as the new denominator.<\/p>\n<p>Now, adjust the numerators. For the fraction \\(\\frac{2}{3}\\), the denominator was multiplied by 4, so the numerator should also be multiplied by 4, which equals \\(\\frac{8}{12}\\).
