13/12 or 1 1/12
Step-by-step explanation:
First, I like to line up the fractions like this:
3/4
1/3
You can't add them yet because they have different denominators, so we have to get them to the same denominator first. What is a number 3 and 4 can be multiplied by? Let's use 12. So, we want both of their denominators to be 12. How do we do that? 4 times what equals 12? 3. However, whatever you multiply the denominator by, you have to do to the numerator as well. Here is what we have:
3/4 x 3
1/3
3x3 equals 9, so your first fraction is 9/12. Then, do the second fraction. 3 times what equals 12? 4. So, multiply the numerator, 1, by 4 to get 4. So, your second fraction is 4/12. Now, you have to add them together, 9+4 = 13. The denominator stays the same. So, your sum is 13/12. If you want to, you can also simplify it to a mixed number into 1 1/12.
