Rule #1: Never add denominators
Rule #2: Add only the numerators
Rule #3: Add the numerators only and only if the denominators are the same
1) 1/2 + 6/2 = 7/2
2) 1/2 + 1/3 = ?
You cannot add the numerators because the denominators are not the same. Look for equivalent fractions to make the denominators the same before adding the numerators.
1/2 + 1/3 = 3/6 + 2/6 = 5/6
3) 1/4 + 3/8
4 divide 8, so you can choose 8 as a common denominator
1/4 + 3/8 = 2/8 + 3/8 = 5/8
