Answer:
1/6 + 3/4
2/12 + 9/12
11/12
all you have to do is find lcm
Step-by-step explanation:
How do you solve fractions step by step?
Add: 1/
6
+ 3/
4
= 1 · 2/
6 · 2
+ 3 · 3/
4 · 3
= 2/
12
+ 9/
12
= 2 + 9/
12
= 11/
12
For adding, subtracting, and comparing fractions, it is suitable to adjust both fractions to a common (equal, identical) denominator. The common denominator you can calculate as the least common multiple of both denominators - LCM(6, 4) = 12. In practice, it is enough to find the common denominator (not necessarily the lowest) by multiplying the denominators: 6 × 4 = 24. In the following intermediate step, it cannot further simplify the fraction result by canceling.
In other words - one sixth plus three quarters = eleven twelfths.
