3/12+2/4=
You asked:
Evaluate the expression: \(\frac{3}{12} + \frac{2}{4}\)
MathBot Answer:
\[ \frac{3}{12} + \frac{2}{4} = \frac{3}{4} = 0.75 \]
The sum can be computed by rewriting each term over a common denominator, where the least common denominator of \(\frac{3}{12}\) and \(\frac{2}{4}\) is \(12\). \[ \begin{aligned} \frac{3}{12} + \frac{2}{4} &= \frac{3 \cdot 1}{12 \cdot 1} + \frac{2 \cdot 3}{4 \cdot 3} \\ &= \frac{3 + 6}{12} \\ &= \frac{9}{12} \\&= \frac{3}{4} \end{aligned} \]
