12/3+1 how to solve
You asked:
Evaluate the expression: \(\frac{12}{3} + 1\)
MathBot Answer:
\[ \frac{12}{3} + 1 = 5 \]
The sum can be computed by rewriting each term over a common denominator, where the least common denominator of \(\frac{12}{3}\) and \(\frac{1}{1}\) is \(3\). \[ \begin{aligned} \frac{12}{3} + 1 &= \frac{12 \cdot 1}{3 \cdot 1} + \frac{1 \cdot 3}{1 \cdot 3} \\ &= \frac{12 + 3}{3} \\ &= \frac{15}{3} \\&= 5 \end{aligned} \]
