Let’s solve each fraction addition problem step by step.
We are adding fractions with the same denominator. That means we just add the numerators (top numbers) and keep the denominator (bottom number) the same.

Problem 1:
½ + ½ = ?
→ 1 + 1 = 2 → so,
2/2
✔ Already filled in as 2/2 — correct!
---
Problem 2:
¼ + ¼ = ?
→ 1 + 1 = 2 → so,
2/4
---
Problem 3:
²⁄₄ + ¹⁄₄ = ?
→ 2 + 1 = 3 → so,
3/4
---
Problem 4:
⅓ + ⅓ = ?
→ 1 + 1 = 2 → so,
2/3
---
Problem 5:
²⁄₃ + ¹⁄₃ = ?
→ 2 + 1 = 3 → so,
3/3
*(Note: 3/3 equals 1 whole, but since the worksheet asks for the fraction form with denominator 3, we leave it as 3/3.)*
---
Problem 6:
³⁄₅ + ¹⁄₅ = ?
→ 3 + 1 = 4 → so,
4/5
---
Problem 7:
¹⁄₅ + ¹⁄₅ = ?
→ 1 + 1 = 2 → so,
2/5
---
Now let’s list all the answers in order from top to bottom:
1. 2/2
✔ (already given)
2. 2/4
3. 3/4
4. 2/3
5. 3/3
6. 4/5
7. 2/5
Final Answer:
2/4, 3/4, 2/3, 3/3, 4/5, 2/5
