if you add two sinusoidal waves of different frequency and amplitude, how do you determine the fundamental frequency?

edit: is it just the lowest frequency that you added together?

it depends on the two sine waves being added

In a harmonic series, it's the longest wavelength of all the waves. aka, the lowest tone.

If you think that's hard, just wait till you learn convolution.

nah, not hard, was just trying to visualize it, and probably will not have any need to learn anymore than that
