How to add fractions? with unlike denominators

Mathematics
1 answer:
stellarik [79]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The recipe calls for 19/12 or 1 7/9 cups.


Step-by-step:

In order to get this answer, we have to add all three fractions together. First, we have to find the LCM (Least Common Multiple) between the three denominators:

2: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12

3: 3,6,9,12

4: 4,8,12

The LCM between these three denominators is 12.

4x3=12

2x6=12

3x4=12

You now multiply the numerator by the same number you multiplied by for the denominator in order to get 12:

3/4 becomes 9/12

1/2 becomes 6/12

1/3 becomes 4/12

We now add all the fractions together:

9/12+6/12+4/12= 19/12

We got 19/12 but the answer is an improper fraction so we turn it into a mixed number:

12x1=12 (7 remaining)

This is written as 1 7/12.

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

slope = \frac{4}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 3, 0 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, 4) ← 2 points on the line

m = \frac{4-0}{2-(-3)} = \frac{4}{5}

The last answer: 2 or 0

Explanation:

When you graph this function, it crosses the x-axis once. In other words, that means there is only 1 real zero and 2 imaginary complex zeros. In addition, imaginary solutions always come in pairs, so there can’t be a odd number of them such as 3.
