What are some important things to remember for this test?

**Addition and Subtraction: Fractions must have SAME DENOMINATOR (if they don’t- rename them!). Do not add denominators.

**Subtraction: top, or first numerator must be larger than bottom, or second numerator. If not-rename. Do not add denominators.

**Multiplication: FFF (Fraction Form first)

1.)    Rename any mixed numbers or whole numbers so that they are in fraction form.

2.)  Simplify diagonally if possible.

3.)  Multiply across

**Division: FFF (Fraction Form first)

                 KCF (Keep the first number the same, change division to mult., flip the second number). Then follow multiplication rules.
