3/4 + 1/12
You asked:
Evaluate the expression: \(\frac{3}{4} + \frac{1}{12}\)
MathBot Answer:
\[ \frac{3}{4} + \frac{1}{12} = \frac{5}{6} = 0.8\overline{3} \]
The sum can be computed by rewriting each term over a common denominator, where the least common denominator of \(\frac{3}{4}\) and \(\frac{1}{12}\) is \(12\). \[ \begin{aligned} \frac{3}{4} + \frac{1}{12} &= \frac{3 \cdot 3}{4 \cdot 3} + \frac{1 \cdot 1}{12 \cdot 1} \\ &= \frac{9 + 1}{12} \\ &= \frac{10}{12} \\&= \frac{5}{6} \end{aligned} \]
