Explain why you cannot add or subtract fractions with unlike denominators while you can add or subtract fractions with like denominators. Include one or more real-world examples in your explanation.(2 points) 1 Paragraph 3 sentences 10 words each

You cannot add or subtract fractions with unlike denominators because the denominators represent different units or parts, making them not directly comparable. For example, you cannot add 1/4 cup and 1/3 cup of flour as their denominators represent different fractions of a cup. However, you can add or subtract fractions with like denominators because they represent the same units or parts, such as adding 1/4 cup and 1/4 cup of sugar.
