What’s 1/2 + 1/3? Y’all please help me . And when or if you can give me the answer can you do step-by-step on how you did that so I can do it myself next time?

Respuesta :

Hi! 1/2 + 1/3 is 5/6.

2 + 3 = 5
2 X 3 = 6

= 5/6

I hope this helped if I can help in anyway I would be happy to help you. Goodluck :)

[tex] \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{3} [/tex]

Since the denominators are unequal, we find the L.C.M (lowest common multiple) for both denominators.

The L. C. M for 2 and 3 is 6.

Now, multiply the L.C.M. with both numerator & denominator.

[tex] = \frac{1 \times 3}{2 \times 3} + \frac{1 \times 2}{3 \times 2} [/tex]

[tex]= \frac{3}{6} + \frac{2}{6} [/tex]

Now that the denominators are equal, we can add them.

[tex]= \frac{3 + 2}{6} \\ \\ = \frac{5}{6} [/tex]
