Question

Which expression has a value of 7/12 ? 7/8 + 4 , 1/3 + 1/4 , 6/8 + 1/4 , 2 1/12 + 5 1/12

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find an expression that has a value of

$\frac{7}{12}$

First option:

$\frac{7}{8} + 4 = \frac{7}{8} + \frac{32}{8} = \frac{39}{8} \ne \frac{7}{12}$

Second option:

$\frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{4} = \frac{4}{12} + \frac{3}{12} = \frac{7}{12}$

Correct option

Third option

$\frac{6}{8} + \frac{1}{4} = \frac{3}{4} + \frac{1}{4} = 1$

Fourth option:

$2 \frac{1}{12} + 5 \frac{1}{12} = \frac{43}{6}$
