Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever you add or subtract fractions, you must find a common denominator. The denominator is the bottom number in a fraction.

In this case, to find a common denominator, you must multiply 1/2 on the top and bottom by 3:

1/2 x 3/3 = 3/6

Now that w have a common denominator, we can add:

1/6 + 3/6 = 4/6

Now that we have combined the fractions, we must simplify, by dividing the top and bottom by 2:

(4/6) / 2 = 2/3

Hope this helps!

How do you solve this equation . Q=3a+5ac
mr_godi [17]
A "solution" would be a set of three numbers ... for Q, a, and c ... that
would make the equation a true statement.

If you only have one equation, then there are an infinite number of triplets
that could do it.  For example, with the single equation in this question,
(Q, a, c) could be (13, 1, 2) and they could also be  (16, 2, 1).
There are infinite possibilities with one equation.

In order to have a unique solution ... three definite numbers for Q, a, and c ...
you would need three equations.
