Let's solve the worksheet titled "Adding Three Numbers", which involves adding mixed fractions with the same denominators.

We'll go through each problem step by step, showing how to add mixed numbers when they have like denominators (same denominator). The general method is:

1. Add the whole number parts.
2. Add the fractional parts.
3. If the sum of the fractional parts is an improper fraction, convert it to a mixed number and add the whole number part to the total.

🔍 Key Tips:


- Always add whole numbers separately from fractions.
- When adding fractions, if the result is improper, convert to a mixed number and carry over the whole number.
- Simplify fractions only if needed (e.g., $ \frac{10}{8} = 1\frac{1}{4} $).
