Looking at the worksheet, I can see it contains 8 fraction addition problems. Since all the fractions in each problem have the same denominator, I just need to add the numerators and keep the denominator the same.
Let me solve each one:
1. 4/11 + 6/11 = (4+6)/11 = 10/11
2. 12/40 + 11/40 = (12+11)/40 = 23/40
3. 12/33 + 9/33 = (12+9)/33 = 21/33
This can be simplified: both 21 and 33 are divisible by 3
21÷3 = 7, 33÷3 = 11, so 21/33 = 7/11
4. 6/21 + 5/21 = (6+5)/21 = 11/21
5. 3/13 + 8/13 = (3+8)/13 = 11/13
6. 5/22 + 7/22 = (5+7)/22 = 12/22
This can be simplified: both 12 and 22 are divisible by 2
12÷2 = 6, 22÷2 = 11, so 12/22 = 6/11
7. 13/35 + 11/35 = (13+11)/35 = 24/35
8. 11/43 + 18/43 = (11+18)/43 = 29/43
Final Answer:
1. 10/11
2. 23/40
3. 7/11
4. 11/21
5. 11/13
6. 6/11
7. 24/35
8. 29/43
