Question:
What is the product of 
and 
-----
-Hunter
Answer: 1/2
<u>Multiply both the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the number that makes its denominator equal the LCD</u>
(2/12*1/1) + (1/3+4/4)
<u>Complete the multiplication and the equation becomes
</u>
2/12+4/12
<u>The two fractions now have like denominators so you can add the numerators.</u>
2+4/12 = 6/12
<u>This fraction can be reduced by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor </u>
6/12 ÷ 6/6 = 1/2
<u>Therefore:
</u>
2/12 + 1/3 = 1/2
The 7 before the decimal would be classified as a tenth
