Practice Adding Fractions with Like Denominators in Math
Use these practice problems to test your method after reviewing the concept explanation and worked examples.
Quick Recap
Adding fractions that share the same denominator by adding the numerators and keeping the denominator.
If you have \frac{2}{5} of a pie and get \frac{1}{5} more, you now have \frac{3}{5}—same size pieces, just count them up.
Example 1
easyAdd \frac{3}{8} + \frac{4}{8}.
Example 2
mediumAdd \frac{5}{9} + \frac{7}{9} and simplify fully.
Example 3
easyA jug contains \frac{2}{7} litre of water. You pour in another \frac{3}{7} litre. How much water is in the jug?
Example 4
mediumCompute \frac{4}{11} + \frac{5}{11} + \frac{6}{11} and simplify.
