The converted fractions are 3/12 and 5/12 and the sum is 2/3

<h3>How to convert the fractions?</h3>

From the question, the fractions are given as

1/4 and 5/12

The denominators of these fractions are

4 and 12

So. we start by calculating the LCD of the denominators

So, we have

4 = 2* 2

12 = 2 * 2 * 3

This gives

LCD = 2 * 2 * 3

Evaluate

LCD = 12

This means that the common denominator must be 12

So, we have

1/4 and 5/12

Multiply 1/4 by 3/3

This gives

3/12 and 5/12

When the fractions are added, we have

3/12 + 5/12 = (3 + 5)/12

Evaluate

3/12 + 5/12 = 8/12

Reduce fraction

3/12 + 5/12 = 2/3

Hence, the sum of the fractions is 2/3

What is the solution to the inequality
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

p > 5 and p <-8

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, you first need to isolate p.

First add 6 on both sides of the equation:

-6 + |2p+3| >7\\\\(+6) -6 + |2p+3| >7 +6\\\\2p + 3 > 13

Then subtract 3 from both sides of the equation.

2p+3-3>13-3\\\\2p > 10\\

The divide both sides by 2.

\dfrac{2p}{2}>\dfrac{10}{2}\\\\p>5

Another solution is possible because of the absolute value.

If |2p+3|>13

Then |2p+3|

<em>Thus we can solve the second solution:</em>

|2p+3|

2p+3

Isolate P again by subtracting both sides by 3

2p+3-3

2p

Then divide both sides by 2:

\dfrac{2p}{2}

p
