Adding Fractions (Unlike Denominators)

Mathematics · Fractions · procedural

Add and subtract fractions with unlike denominators (including mixed numbers) by replacing given fractions with equivalent fractions to produce a common denominator

What mastery looks like

  • Compute 2/3 + 5/4 by converting to twelfths: 8/12 + 15/12 = 23/12
  • Subtract 1 3/5 from 3 1/4 using a common denominator
  • Explain the strategy of finding a common denominator and verify using a visual model

Check your understanding

If a recipe uses 2/3 of a cup of one ingredient and 3/4 of another, can Adding Fractions (Unlike Denominators) add those fractions together — even though the denominators are different?
