Adding fractions activity

To add fractions with the same denominator, you simply add the numerators together and keep the common denominator unchanged. 

Let's add 1/3 and 2/3. We add the numerators (1 and 2) and keep the denominator (3) the same.

1/3  +  2/3  =  3/3 which is equal to 1. 

1/3  +  2/3  =  3/3  =  1 

Students work out the sums and write the answer in its simplest form.
