Our Adding Fractions (Unlike Denominators) worksheet provides rigorous practice for 5th-grade students mastering the multi-step process of adding complex fractions.

How to Solve Exponents

You cannot add these fractions as they are. First, find a common denominator by multiplying the two bottom numbers (or finding their LCM). Multiply the numerators by the same factor you used for their respective denominators. Once the denominators match, add the numerators and simplify your answer if possible.
