Question

add.
\frac{11}{12} + \frac{3}{4} =
submit

Explanation:

Step1: Find a common denominator

The denominators are 12 and 4. The least common denominator is 12. Rewrite $\frac{3}{4}$ with denominator 12: $\frac{3\times3}{4\times3}=\frac{9}{12}$.

Step2: Add the fractions

Now add $\frac{11}{12}+\frac{9}{12}=\frac{11 + 9}{12}=\frac{20}{12}$.

Step3: Simplify the fraction

Simplify $\frac{20}{12}$ by dividing numerator and denominator by 4: $\frac{20\div4}{12\div4}=\frac{5}{3}$ (or as a mixed number $1\frac{2}{3}$).

Answer:

$\frac{5}{3}$ (or $1\frac{2}{3}$)
