\n" ); document.write( "-----------------
\n" ); document.write( "Your Problem:
\n" ); document.write( "(3/20) + (3/5)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Common Denominator is 20.
\n" ); document.write( "Rewrite each fraction with the common denominator:
\n" ); document.write( "=(3/20) + (12/20)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now you can add the fractions:
\n" ); document.write( "= 15/20\r
