Here's how to add

Step 1We still have different denominators (bottom numbers), though, so we need to get a common denominator. This will make the bottom numbers match. Multiply the denominators together first. Now, multiply each numerator by the other term's denominator. Now we multiply 70 by 11, and get 770, then we multiply 51 by 11 and get 561. Now for the second term. You multiply 1 by 51, and get 51, then multiply 51 by 11 and get 561. This gives us a new problem that looks like so:

Step 2Since our denominators match, we can add the numerators. 770 + 51 = 821 So what's the answer so far?
