<u>Answer:</u>

LCD is 60 and the sum is \left(\frac{59}{60}\right)

<u>Solution: </u>

First let’s list the multiple of the denominators,

Multiples of 4 is 4,8,12,16,20,24,28,32,36,40,44,48,52,56, 60,64

Multiples of 5 is 5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55,60,65

Multiples of 3 is 3,6,9,12,15,18,21,24,27,30,33,36,39,42,25,48,51,54,57,60,63

We can see that the least common number of the set of denominators in the list is 60 .

So, the LCD of the fractions are 60.

To add or subtract fractions with different denominators, multiply each numerator and denominator by same factor used to multiply the corresponding denominator when reaching the LCD.

Now adding them we get,

\frac{1}{4}+\frac{2}{5}+\frac{1}{3} = \frac{1\times15}{4\times15}+\frac{2\times12}{5\times12}+\frac{1\times20}{3\times20} (as the LCD is 60)

On solving we get,

\Rightarrow\left(\frac{15+24+20}{60}\right)

\Rightarrow\left(\frac{59}{60}\right)

The sum is \left(\frac{59}{60}\right)

Which statement describes the lines whose equations are y=1/3x+12 and 6y=2x+6
ICE Princess25 [194]
First, you should solve both equations for the same variable. Since the first one is already solved for y, solve the second equation for y as well.

6y = 2x + 6   Divide both sides by 6
y = \frac{1}{3}x + 1

You can see that both lines have a slope of \frac{1}{3}.
Lines that have the same slope are parallel lines.
