Advice

When adding/subtracting fractions, you must first find a common denominator between the fractions. If they already have the same denominator then you only need to worry about adding/subtracting the numerators and dividing the result by the common denominator.

For example:
To find a common denominator of $\frac{2}{5} + \frac{7}{15}$ , the most obvious would be $15$ , because $5\times3=15$ . Therefore, you must multiply both sides of the fraction $\frac{2}{5}$ by $3$ to obtain a new fraction $\frac{6}{15}$ . This is known as 'scaling up'.
Now you can add the two fractions together (by adding the numerators) because they have the same denominator:
$\frac{6}{15}+\frac{7}{15}=\frac{13}{15}$ .

The same applies with subtraction as well as addition.

When multiplying fractions, you can simply multiply the two numerators and divide this by the multiplication of the two denominators.

For example:
$\frac{a}{b}\times\frac{c}{d}$ = $\frac{a\times{c}}{b\times{d}}$

When dividing fractions, you firstly need to reciprocate (flip) the second fraction, then multiply the numerators and denominators as you would a normal multiplication question.

For example:
$\frac{a}{b} \div \frac{c}{d}$ would be flipped to become $\frac{a}{b} \div \frac{d}{c}$ and then treated as a normal multiplication question (as explained above).
