Question

Add 5/14 and 1/6what is 5/14 plus 1/6

Answer 1

First, find the LCM (lowest common multiple) for denominators 14 and 6:

LCM of 14 and 6= 42

Then multiply the numerators by the same number that you multiplied each denominator to achieve the LCM:

15/42 + 7/42

Now solve! (and simplify)

15/42 + 7/42= 22/42
                    = 11/12

Hope this helps!
