This math topic involves practicing the addition of mixed fractions without simplifying the answers, focusing on cases where one fraction's denominator is changed to facilitate the addition. The problems require understanding of finding a common denominator and adding fractions with unlike denominators, strengthening foundational skills in handling fractions in mixed format, specifically designed for introductory learning in fraction addition and subtraction. The objective is to compute the sum without simplifying to lowest terms, thereby focusing on the process of combining fractions rather than the simplification steps.
