Question

The sum of 1/6,2/3 and 1/4 is

Answer 1

Before you add the fractions, make sure they have a common denominator. The LCM of 6, 3, and 4 is 12.

$6 \times 2 = 12 \\ 3 \times 4 = 12 \\ 4 \times 3 = 12$

Change each fraction so that they have a common denominator.

$\frac{1 \times 2}{6 \times 2} = \frac{2}{12}$

$\frac{2 \times 4}{3 \times 4} = \frac{8}{12}$

$\frac{1 \times 3}{4 \times 3} = \frac{3}{12}$

Now add the 3 fractions:

$\frac{2}{12} + \frac{8}{12} + \frac{3}{12} = \frac{13}{12} \rightarrow 1 \frac{1}{12}$

Your answer is 1 $\frac{1}{12}$

Answer 2

The answer is 13/12 or 1 1/12
