What are Fractions?

Equivalent Fractions
Equivalent fractions have different numerators and denominators but represent the same value.
Comparing Fractions
To compare fractions, find a common denominator or convert them to decimals.
Adding Fractions
To add fractions, make sure the denominators are the same, then add the numerators.
