Printable math worksheet for practicing addition of like fractions.

I'll solve each fraction addition problem step by step.

When adding like fractions (fractions with the same denominator), I need to:
1. Keep the denominator the same
2. Add the numerators together
3. Simplify if possible

Let me work through each problem:

a) 2/6 + 3/6
- Denominator stays 6
- Numerators: 2 + 3 = 5
- Answer: 5/6

b) 1/4 + 2/4
- Denominator stays 4
- Numerators: 1 + 2 = 3
- Answer: 3/4

c) 1/8 + 6/8
- Denominator stays 8
- Numerators: 1 + 6 = 7
- Answer: 7/8

d) 5/10 + 2/10
- Denominator stays 10
- Numerators: 5 + 2 = 7
- Answer: 7/10

e) 1/5 + 3/5
- Denominator stays 5
- Numerators: 1 + 3 = 4
- Answer: 4/5

f) 2/7 + 3/7
- Denominator stays 7
- Numerators: 2 + 3 = 5
- Answer: 5/7

g) 1/3 + 1/3
- Denominator stays 3
- Numerators: 1 + 1 = 2
- Answer: 2/3

h) 5/12 + 3/12
- Denominator stays 12
- Numerators: 5 + 3 = 8
- Answer: 8/12, which simplifies to 2/3 (dividing both by 4)

Final Answer:
a) 5/6
b) 3/4
c) 7/8
d) 7/10
e) 4/5
f) 5/7
g) 2/3
h) 2/3
