Answer :

You add them the same way you do with proper fractions. Make sure they have common denominators and add the numerators.

Example:

[tex] \frac{3}{2} + \frac{4}{3} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{3*3}{2*3} + \frac{4*2}{3*2} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{9}{6} + \frac{8}{6} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{9+8}{6} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{17}{6} [/tex]

The same way you do with proper ones . . . put them over a common denominator, and then add the new numerators.
