Here's how we add

Step 1Of course, you can't add two fractions if the denominators (bottom numbers) don't match. To get a common denominator, multiply the denominators together. Then we fix the numerators by multiplying each one by their other term's denominator. Now you multiply 9 by 11, and get 99, then we multiply 100 by 11 and get 1100. Do the same for the second term. We multiply 10 by 100, and get 1000, then multiply 100 by 11 and get 1100. The problem now has new fractions to add:

Step 2Since our denominators match, we can add the numerators. 99 + 1000 = 1099 This yields the answer
