Addition of Fractions
We multiply the top and the bottom of first fraction by 2
We have different denominators now (bottom numbers)
let's change the first fraction to have 4 at the bottom
Now we have the same numbers at the bottoms, sowe can add the fractions. Add only tops!
We can only add fractions with the same bottoms, so
