Question

1/6+7/12=?

Answer 1

add them

Answer 2

You need to find GCF to make the denominators the same

Answer 3

oh really

Answer 4

@benlindquist it's not that simple

Answer 5

1/6=2/12

Answer 6

now add

Answer 7

so the gcf and the add the top and then reduce

Answer 8

?

Answer 9

You need to find the GCF and then use it to convert 1/6 so that it has a denominator of 12.

Answer 10

is it 8/12

Answer 11

reduce

Answer 12

No it is not

Answer 13

Find the GCF of 6 and 12. Do you know how to do that?

Answer 14

no

Answer 15

LCM*

I meant LCM not gcf

Answer 16

Actually a simpler way to do it would be to just divide the denominators.

Answer 17

least common denominator

Answer 18

What do you get when you divide 12 by 6?

Answer 19

2

Answer 20

Now multiply that into both numbers in 1/6

Answer 21

Find the Least Common Denominator (LCD) of 1/6,7/12
Method 1: By Listing Multiples
List out all multiples of each denominator, and find the first common one.
6 : 6,12
12 : 12
Therefore, the LCD is 12
Method 2: By Prime Factors
List all prime factors of each denominator, and find the union of these primes.
6 : 2,3
12 : 2,2,3
Therefore, the LCD is 2×2×3=12
Make the denominators the same as the LCD
1×2/6×2 +7/12

Simplify. Denominators are now the same
2/12+7/12

Join the denominators
2+7/12

Simplify
9/12=?

Answer 22

\[\frac{ 1 \times 2 }{ 6 \times 2 } = \frac{ ? }{ ? }\]

Answer 23

Or you could just interrupt me and do everything for em that works too

Answer 24

2/12

Answer 25

hello

Answer 26

so what is the ansswer

Answer 27

nope thats wrong it would be 3/4 because if you simplify 9/12 and 3 fits in to 9 3 times and for 12 3 goes into 12 4 time so your answer would be 3/4. do you see how i did that?

Answer 28

but i dont want it in the simpeliest form

Answer 29

ok the answer is 3/4 but if you do not need it in simplest form than your answer would be 9/12.
