Common denominators ,[object Object],So, sometimes we have to change the bottoms to make them the same. In “maths-speak” we say we must get  common denominators
Common denominators ,[object Object],1. Multiply the bottoms together. 2. Then multiply the top bit by the correct number to get an equivalent fraction
Common denominators ,[object Object]
Common denominators ,[object Object],[object Object]
Common denominators ,[object Object],2. Write the two fractions as sixths
Common denominators ,[object Object],To get ½ into sixths we have multiplied the bottom (2) by 3.  To get an equivalent fraction we need to multiply the top by 3 also
Common denominators ,[object Object],To get ½ into sixths we have multiplied the bottom (2) by 3.  To get an equivalent fraction we need to multiply the top by 3 also
Common denominators ,[object Object],To get 1/3 into sixths we have multiplied the bottom (3) by 2.  To get an equivalent fraction we need to multiply the top by 2 also
Common denominators ,[object Object],To get 1/3 into sixths we have multiplied the bottom (3) by 2.  To get an equivalent fraction we need to multiply the top by 2 also
Common denominators ,[object Object],We can now rewrite
