Answer:
5/12
Step-by-step explanation:
1/4 and 1/6 are fractions.
As we directly can't add fractions whenever denominators are different, so we will have to find out the Least common multiple of 4 and 6.
The LCM Of 4&6 will be 12, so we will write 12 instead of 4&6.
Now, 4*3=12, that is why we will have to multiply the numerator and denominator with 3.
1*3/4*3 = 3/12
Same thing applies to 1/6. In order to get 12 in the denominator we need to multiply 2 with numerator and denominator both.
1*2/6*2= 2/12
However, we have two new fractions with same denominator now, that is 3/12 and 2/12
We can directly add the numerators now, as we have the same denominator. So 3+2/12= 5/12 would be my final answer. (addition of like fractions)
5/12
