3-34 a. 5/12 + 1/3
Correct Answer
3/4Explanation
The given expression is a sum of two fractions: 5/12 and 1/3. To add these fractions, we need to find a common denominator, which in this case is 12. We then convert both fractions to have a denominator of 12. The first fraction becomes 5/12 and the second fraction becomes 4/12. Adding these fractions gives us a result of 9/12, which can be simplified to 3/4.Rate this question:

3-34 b.4/5 + 3/4
Correct Answer
1 11/20, 31/20Explanation
The given expression is 4/5 + 3/4. To add these fractions, we need to find a common denominator, which in this case is 20. Multiplying the numerator and denominator of 4/5 by 4, we get 16/20. Multiplying the numerator and denominator of 3/4 by 5, we get 15/20. Now we can add the fractions: 16/20 + 15/20 = 31/20. This can be simplified to the mixed number 1 11/20. So, the answer is 1 11/20, 31/20.Rate this question:
