Miguel Yoder · Answer 2

Common denominator: 24

Why: 4/8, 3/6, and 6/12 denominators are 8, 6, and 12. You will have to find the least common multiple of all these 3 numbers:

8: 8, 16, 24, 32

6: 6, 12, 18, 24, 30

12: 12, 24, 36

So 24 will be your common denominator.

If you need to solve the problem:

4/8 + 3/6: 4x6=24 8x3=24 8x6=48 24+24=48 = 48/48

48/48 + 6/12: 48x6 = 288 48x12 = 576 48x12=576 288+576=864 = 864/576

Simplified: 3/2
