# Frequency/Amplitude Modulationamplitude modulation and SNR

I read (for instance here) that FM modulation is less affected by noise than AM modulation.

But I don't understand conceptually the reason for that: why is the SNR with Frequency Modulationfrequency modulation higher than the SNR with Amplitude Modulationamplitude modulation?
