To add three twelfths to three fourths, we first need to find a common denominator. The least common multiple of 12 and 4 is 12. Converting three fourths to nine twelfths, we can now add three twelfths to nine twelfths to get twelve twelfths, which simplifies to one whole. Therefore, three twelfths plus three fourths equals one whole.

Alright, buckle up buttercup. To find the sum of three twelfths and three fourths, you first need to get a common denominator. In this case, the common denominator is 12. So, three twelfths is equivalent to one fourth. Add that to three fourths, and you get a grand total of four fourths, which simplifies to one whole. So, in simpler terms, 3/12 + 3/4 = 1.
Oh, dude, math time! So, three twelfths is basically a quarter, right? And three fourths is, well, three fourths. So, if you add a quarter and three fourths together, you get... (drumroll)... one whole! Like, boom, math wizard right here!
3/12
+3/4
First, line up the fractions.
3/12=1/4 (divide both the numerator and the denominator by 3, the LCM)
+3/4=3/4
Make them have the same denominator
1/4
+3/4
4/4 or 1
1/2 = 6/122/3 = 8/123/4 = 9/12 (generally called quarters not fourths)(6+8+9)/1223/12one and eleven twelfths, or twenty-three twelfths
They would have to convert to same denominators to add. So that would be 8 twelfths plus three twelfths. And that is eleven twelfths. 0.916666667

5 0ver 6 I always hated these questions in Algebra. But they're pretty simple, if you can make the two parts more equal. Since Twelfths and Fourths are different, you have to get them to be the same. It's easier to convert 4ths to 12ths, since Four Goes Into 12 Three times - so ONE FOURTH is the same as THREE TWELFTHS, right? That's the tricky part, right there - being able to see the relationship between FOURTHs and TWELFTHs. So 7/12ths plus 3/12ths is 10/12ths, right? Which is the same as 5/6ths. The first answerer didn't tell you HOW he got the answer, so you were no better off in case it came up again.
