Express 2 sixths in the simplest form.
- A.
  
  2/6
- B.
  
  1/3
- C.
  
  2/1
- D.
  
  12
Correct Answer
B. 1/3

Explanation
To express 2 sixths in the simplest form, we need to find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the numerator and denominator, which is 2 and 6 in this case. The GCD of 2 and 6 is 2. By dividing both numerator and denominator by 2, we get 1/3, which is the simplest form of 2 sixths.

Which of the following addition will give the greatest value?
- A.
  
  1/2 + 1/3
- B.
  
  1/3 + 1/4
- C.
  
  1/5 +1/6
- D.
  
  1/6+ 1/7
Correct Answer
A. 1/2 + 1/3

Explanation
To determine which addition will give the greatest value, we need to find the common denominator for each pair of fractions. The common denominator for 1/2 and 1/3 is 6, so the addition becomes 3/6 + 2/6, which equals 5/6. The common denominator for 1/3 and 1/4 is 12, so the addition becomes 4/12 + 3/12, which equals 7/12. The common denominator for 1/5 and 1/6 is 30, so the addition becomes 6/30 + 5/30, which equals 11/30. The common denominator for 1/6 and 1/7 is 42, so the addition becomes 7/42 + 6/42, which equals 13/42. Therefore, the addition of 1/2 + 1/3 gives the greatest value, which is 5/6.
