The Denominators Need To Equal
-----------------------
Find a Common Multiple of B and D
-----------------------
Multiply "B" by a number that makes it equal to the common multiple, and multiply "A" by the same number
--------------------
Multiply "D" by a number that makes it equal to the common multiple, and multiply "C" by the same number
-----------------------
Now both denominators are equal, so now you add the numerators together, while keeping the denominators the same.

The Denominators Need To Equal
-----------------------
Find a Common Multiple of B and D
-----------------------
Multiply "B" by a number that makes it equal to the common multiple, and multiply "A" by the same number
--------------------
Multiply "D" by a number that makes it equal to the common multiple, and multiply "C" by the same number
-----------------------
Now both denominators are equal, so now you can subtract the numerators from each other, while keeping the denominators the same.
------------------
Term
