Addition and subtraction of unlike fractions
Example (1) Add : 23+16
First let us show the fraction 23 by coloring two of the three equal parts on a strip.
You have learnt to add and to subtract fractions with common denominators. Here, we have to add the fraction 16 to the fraction 23.
So let us divide each part on this strip into two equal parts. 46 is a fraction equivalent to 23. Now, as 16 is to be added to 23 i.e. to 46, we shall colour one more of the six parts on the strip. Now, the total coloured part is 56.
Therefore, 
That is, ![]()
Example (2) Add : 12+25
Here, the smallest common multiple of the two denominators is 10. So, we shall change the denominator of both fractions to 10.
Example (3) Add : 38+116
Here, 16 is twice 8. So, we shall change the denominator of both fractions to 16.
Example (4) Subtract : 34−58
Let us make 8 the common denominator of the given fractions.
Example (5) Subtract : 45−23
The smallest common multiple of the denominators is 15. So, we shall change the denominator of both fractions to 15.
