You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(\frac{1}{3} + \frac{3}{4}\)

MathBot Answer:

\[ \frac{1}{3} + \frac{3}{4} = \frac{13}{12} = 1.08\overline{3} \]


The sum can be computed by rewriting each term over a common denominator, where the least common denominator of \(\frac{1}{3}\) and \(\frac{3}{4}\) is \(12\). \[ \begin{aligned} \frac{1}{3} + \frac{3}{4} &= \frac{1 \cdot 4}{3 \cdot 4} + \frac{3 \cdot 3}{4 \cdot 3} \\ &= \frac{4 + 9}{12} \\ &= \frac{13}{12} \end{aligned} \]
