What is the simplest form of 4a + 8b/12​<br> Step by step pls
shutvik [7]

Answer:

4a + 2b/3

Step-by-step explanation:

focus on 8b/12 first:

factor 8b/12 by 4 ---> 8b/12 = 4(2)b/4(3) ----> cancel 4 in the denominator and the nominator ---> 8b/12 = 4(2)b/4(3) = 2b/3

then, go back to 4a:

4a is in its simplest form, it can't be factor

therefore, plus 4a and 2b/3 = 4a + 2b/3
