²⁄₉ + ¹⁄₁₂ =
You asked:
Evaluate the expression: \(\frac{2}{9} + \frac{1}{12}\)
MathBot Answer:
\[ \frac{2}{9} + \frac{1}{12} = \frac{11}{36} = 0.30\overline{5} \]
The sum can be computed by rewriting each term over a common denominator, where the least common denominator of \(\frac{2}{9}\) and \(\frac{1}{12}\) is \(36\). \[ \begin{aligned} \frac{2}{9} + \frac{1}{12} &= \frac{2 \cdot 4}{9 \cdot 4} + \frac{1 \cdot 3}{12 \cdot 3} \\ &= \frac{8 + 3}{36} \\ &= \frac{11}{36} \end{aligned} \]
