Did you know that you can add improper fractions?
34
34
+
To do it is the same as normal.Read this sum out loud.
Do these fractions have the samedenominator?
34
34
+
The fractions have the same
denominatorquarters
34
34
+ =??
How do we add these two fractions?
34
34
+ =?4
Because both denominators are the same,we do not change it, so it must be quarters.
34
34
+=
64
Now we add the numerators. 3 + 3 = 6.
34
34
+ =64
Here is our answer!

+
Three quarters plus three quartersequals six quarters.

How do we show this?
Three quarters plus three quartersequals six quarters.

How do we add these two fractions?
76
26
+ =?6
Because both denominators are the same,we do not change it, so it must be sixths.
76
26
+=
96
Now we add the numerators. 7 + 2 = 9.
76
26
+ =96
Here is our answer!
