2 chairs + 3 chairs = 5 chairs
Adding and Subtracting Fractions with Different Denominators
What would 2 chairs + 7 rulers be?
We can’t add them together because they aren’t the same object. We can only add them together when they are the same. This is the same for fractions.
7 rulers – 5 rulers = 2 rulers
