No.  I learned adding fractions using common denominators.  And I
realize there is some overlap because some cases will have two or more
skips in them, but I was unsure how to factor that in.  Would you
please explain how?  That would be very helpful. I'm trying to work
out some probabilities like that for an idea I've had about the Roux
step 4.
