| Divide the top and bottom by the same number: |
 |
| Remember, if you do something to the bottom number, always do the same thing to the top number! |
| Find common denominators for: |
 |
| In this example we can multiply the bottom of the first fraction by 5 so that it is the same as the bottom of the second fraction: |
 |
| Remember, if you do something to the bottom number, always do the same thing to the top number! |
So the answer is: |
 |
| Find common denominators for: |
 |
| The simplest way to find a common denominator is to multiply the two bottom numbers (2 and 5). Therefore, multiply the denominator of each fraction times the denominator of the other fraction: |
 |
| Remember, if you do something to the bottom number, always do the same thing to the top number! |
So the answer is: |
