Procedure: 
Adding Rational Expression with Like 
Denominators 
1. Add the numerator 
2. Retain the common denominator 
3. Simplify the answer

Procedure: 
Adding Rational Expression with Different 
Denominators 
1.Find the Least Common denominator (LCD) 
2.Write the equivalent expression if each 
rational expression 
3.Add the numerator and keep the LCD 
4.Simplify the result, if possible
