Question

Solve.E6xplain how you get the answer without using a calculator 6/3 + 1/2

Answer 1

I'm just gonna assume that 6/3 and 1/2 are fractions.

First you have to find common denominators for the fractions to be added.

The first common denominator divisible by both the denominators is 6.

So 2x3=6 and 1x3=3

and 3x2+6 and 6x2+12

so that would be 12/6 + 3/6

Then you would proceed to add both of the numerators together which are 12 and 3.

To get a total of 15/6. You can also simplify that into a mixed number 2 1/2.
