Like & Unlike fractionsLike fractions are those fractions where denominators are same Eg : 1/3, 2/3, 4/3, 8/3 are like fractions 2/9, 4/9, 6/9, 8/9 are like fractions Unlike fractions are those fractions where denominators are different. Eg : 1/2, 1/3, 1/5, 1/8 are unlike fractions Comparing like fractionsLike fractions are those fractions where denominators are same Eg : 1/3, 2/3, 4/3, 8/3 are like fractions How do we know which one is bigger? The fraction where numerator is greater, that fraction is bigger 1/3 < 2/3 < 4/3 < 8/3 Adding & Subtracting Like FractionsLike fractions are those fractions where denominators are same Eg: 1/3, 2/3, 4/3, 8/3 2/9, 4/9, 6/9, 8/9 Add 𝟏/𝟑 & 𝟒/𝟑 1/3 + 4/3 Since denominator is same, we add numerators = (1+ 4)/3 = 5/3 Subtract 𝟐/𝟗 from 𝟔/𝟗 6/9 − 2/9 Since denominator is same, we subtract numerators = (6 − 2)/9 = 4/9
