To add three eighths and five twelfths, first find a common denominator, which is 24. Convert three eighths to 9/24 and five twelfths to 10/24. Adding these together gives 19/24. Therefore, three eighths plus five twelfths equals 19/24.
To add three eighths and five twelfths, we first need a common denominator. The least common multiple of 8 and 12 is 24. Now, we convert the fractions: ( \frac{3}{8} = \frac{3 \times 3}{8 \times 3} = \frac{9}{24} ) ( \frac{5}{12} = \frac{5 \times 2}{12 \times 2} = \frac{10}{24} ) Now, we can add them: [ \frac{9}{24} + \frac{10}{24} = \frac{19}{24} ] Thus, three eighths plus five twelfths equals ( \frac{19}{24} ).
To add three eighths and seven twelfths, first find a common denominator. The least common multiple of 8 and 12 is 24. Convert both fractions: three eighths becomes nine twenty-fourths (3/8 = 9/24) and seven twelfths becomes fourteen twenty-fourths (7/12 = 14/24). Now, add the two fractions: 9/24 + 14/24 = 23/24.
To add one half to five-eighths, first convert one half to eighths. One half is equivalent to four-eighths. Then, add four-eighths to five-eighths: (4/8 + 5/8 = 9/8). Therefore, one half added to five-eighths equals nine-eighths, or 1 and 1/8.
1 7/12 (one and seven-twelfths)
To add eight twelfths and one sixth, first convert one sixth to twelfths: one sixth equals two twelfths. Now, add eight twelfths and two twelfths together: (8/12 + 2/12 = 10/12). This can be simplified to five sixths. Thus, eight twelfths plus one sixth equals five sixths.
Add five eighths
To add three eighths and five twelfths, we first need a common denominator. The least common multiple of 8 and 12 is 24. Now, we convert the fractions: ( \frac{3}{8} = \frac{3 \times 3}{8 \times 3} = \frac{9}{24} ) ( \frac{5}{12} = \frac{5 \times 2}{12 \times 2} = \frac{10}{24} ) Now, we can add them: [ \frac{9}{24} + \frac{10}{24} = \frac{19}{24} ] Thus, three eighths plus five twelfths equals ( \frac{19}{24} ).
To add three eighths and seven twelfths, first find a common denominator. The least common multiple of 8 and 12 is 24. Convert both fractions: three eighths becomes nine twenty-fourths (3/8 = 9/24) and seven twelfths becomes fourteen twenty-fourths (7/12 = 14/24). Now, add the two fractions: 9/24 + 14/24 = 23/24.
To add one half to five-eighths, first convert one half to eighths. One half is equivalent to four-eighths. Then, add four-eighths to five-eighths: (4/8 + 5/8 = 9/8). Therefore, one half added to five-eighths equals nine-eighths, or 1 and 1/8.
The denominators are different, so find the equivalent fractions using the LCD , then add the fractions with the denominators.
Four eighths
1 7/12 (one and seven-twelfths)
To add eight twelfths and one sixth, first convert one sixth to twelfths: one sixth equals two twelfths. Now, add eight twelfths and two twelfths together: (8/12 + 2/12 = 10/12). This can be simplified to five sixths. Thus, eight twelfths plus one sixth equals five sixths.
To add negative three-fourths and five-eighths, first find a common denominator, which is eight. Convert negative three-fourths to eighths: (-\frac{3}{4} = -\frac{6}{8}). Now, add (-\frac{6}{8}) and (\frac{5}{8}): (-\frac{6}{8} + \frac{5}{8} = -\frac{1}{8}). Therefore, negative three-fourths plus five-eighths equals (-\frac{1}{8}).
To add three quarters (3/4) and seven eighths (7/8), first convert three quarters to eighths. Three quarters is equivalent to six eighths (6/8). Now, add six eighths and seven eighths: 6/8 + 7/8 = 13/8. This can be simplified to 1 and 5/8.
That would be 5 eighths. Since 1/2 is equal to 4 eighths, you simply add 1 and 4 together to make five. (The eighths part stays the same)
To add three quarters (3/4) and five twelfths (5/12), we first need a common denominator. The least common multiple of 4 and 12 is 12. Converting 3/4 to twelfths gives us 9/12. Now, adding 9/12 and 5/12 results in 14/12, which simplifies to 7/6 or 1 and 1/6.
