How to Add Fractions with Like Denominators | Type 01 | MathoGuidebr br To add fractions with like denominators, simply add the numerators while keeping the common denominator unchanged. The result will have the same denominator. br For example, to add 29 and 79, add the numerators (2 + 7) to get 4, and the denominator remains 9. br Therefore, 29 + 79 = 99, br which simplifies to 1 whole.br br br When you add fractions with like denominators, it means the bottom numbers (denominators) are already the same. Here are step-by-step instructions:br br 1. **Identify the denominators:** Ensure that the fractions have the same denominator. For instance, if you're adding 29 and 79, both fractions already have a denominator of 9.br br 2. **Add the numerators:** The numerator is the top number in the fraction. In our example, you would add 2 + 7, which equals 9.br br 3. **Keep the common denominator:** Since the denominators are the same, you don't need to change them. The common denominator in our case is 9.br br 4. **Write the result:** Combine the sum of the numerators with the common denominator. In this example, it would be 99.br br 5. **Simplify if needed:** In this case, 99 simplifies to 1, since both the numerator and denominator are divisible by 9.br br So, 29 + 79 = 99 = 1. This method works whenever you're adding fractions with the same denominator.
