3 7/12 = 43/12
2 7/9 = 25/9
both denominators must be the same to add together.
(25/9)x 12
(43/12) x 9
300/108 + 387/108 =
687/108
which in its simplest form is 229/36
and in a mixed number is 6 13/36
I would help but I’m not sure how, please do not press that link or else it will track your address! <33
You can compare fractions by using the benchmark fraction of 1/2. To use this in order to make comparisons, you will need to look carefully at what the numerator and The denominators are in a fraction. If the top number, the numerator is less than half of the denominator, then the fraction would be less then the benchmark 1/2. If the numerator is more than half of the denominator then the fraction would be more than the benchmark 1/2. For example, 3/4 is more than 1/2 because the numerator of three is more than half of the denominator 4.
