Adding Fractions with Equal Denominators on the Number Line

This lesson teaches how to add fractions using a number line. It uses the example of 3/8 and 2/8, showing how to represent each fraction on separate number lines by dividing the space into equal parts based on the denominator. The lesson then demonstrates how to add these fractions by joining the distances on a single number line, resulting in the sum of 5/8. The video concludes with a recap of adding fractions with equal denominators.
