Understanding Fraction Operations
Addition and Subtraction
To add or subtract fractions, they must have the same denominator. If they don't, convert them to equivalent fractions with a common denominator (usually the LCM of the denominators), then add or subtract the numerators.
Multiplication and Division
To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together and the denominators together. To divide by a fraction, multiply by its reciprocal (flip the numerator and denominator). Always simplify your final answer.
