For adding, subtracting, and comparing fractions, it is suitable to adjust both fractions to a common (equal, identical) denominator. The common denominator you can calculate as the least common multiple of both denominators - LCM(2, 3) = 6. In practice, it is enough to find the common denominator (not necessarily the lowest) by multiplying the denominators: 2 × 3 = 6. In the next intermediate step, the fraction result cannot be further simplified by canceling.
In words - one half plus two thirds = seven sixths.

The common denominator you can calculate as the least common multiple of both denominators - LCM(6, 4) = 12. In practice, it is enough to find the common denominator (not necessarily the lowest) by multiplying the denominators: 6 × 4 = 24. In the next intermediate step, the fraction result cannot be further simplified by canceling.
In words - seven sixths plus five quarters = twenty-nine twelfths.

Answer:
- 4/12+3/8 = 8/24+9/24 = 17/24
- 1/2+7/8 = 4/8+7/8 = 11/8 ( can be written as a mixed fraction )
- 2/3+1/4 = 8/12+3/12 = 11/12
- 2/10 + 4/5 = 2/10+8/10 = 10/10 = 1
- 1/6+5/8 = 4/24+15/24 = 19/24
