When you want to add fractions with different denominators-which are the bottom numbers- you have to find the lowest numbers that you can multiply to go into both numbers. I know that you can multiply 8×3 to get 24. And that I can multiply 12×2 to get 24. So 24 would be what we change the denominators to.

But we can't just change the denominators. I have to change the numerators, too. Since I multiplied 8×3, I have to multiply the numerator by 3, also. 3×3=9. The new fraction is $\frac{9}{24}$ .

Do the same thing to the other fraction. But we will multiply by 2. 1×2=2. So now we have $\frac{2}{24}$ . We can now add.

$\frac{9}{24}$ + $\frac{2}{24}$ Only add the top numbers. We have $\frac{11}{24}$ That fraction cannot be reduced, so $\frac{11}{24}$ is the final answer.
