Adding/Subtracting Mixed Fractions
To add/subtract mixed fractions:
1. Add or subtract the whole number part.
2. If the fraction part share a common denominator, proceed
on adding or subtracting. If not, find their LCD to make
equivalent fractions.
3. If the answer is an improper form, reduce the fraction into
a mixed number.

5) 14 - 12 4/9 =
Summary
• To add/subtract similar fractions, simply combine the
numerators and copy the denominators.
• To add/subtract dissimilar fractions, make equivalent
fractions by finding the LCD of the fractions and then
proceed in adding or subtracting the fractions when they
are already similar.
• To add/subtract mixed fractions, change them into
improper fractions first then follow the rules for
adding/subtracting dissimilar fractions.
• Always reduce your answer in its simplest form.
