You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(8 + \frac{6}{2}\)

MathBot Answer:

\[ 8 + \frac{6}{2} = 11 \]


The sum can be computed by rewriting each term over a common denominator, where the least common denominator of \(\frac{8}{1}\) and \(\frac{6}{2}\) is \(2\). \[ \begin{aligned} 8 + \frac{6}{2} &= \frac{8 \cdot 2}{1 \cdot 2} + \frac{6 \cdot 1}{2 \cdot 1} \\ &= \frac{16 + 6}{2} \\ &= \frac{22}{2} \\&= 11 \end{aligned} \]
