Addition 2

Here are 20 problems that all ask you to add a pair of fractions. The starting numbers lean on thirds, fourths, and fifths, so the common denominators grow a little and the work gets slightly tougher than with plain halves. Expect problems such as 2/3 + 1/4 and 2/3 + 3/5, where the total often carries past a whole number. Recommended for students who have the basics down and want more of a stretch. One thing you will notice: with bigger denominators like 12 or 15, finding the common denominator is the real job, and the adding is the easy part.
