    ,

    4



    3

    . In other words, find the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 6,46,4.

    LCD = 1212

    3 Make the denominators the same as the LCD.

    /frac{5/times 2}{6/times 2}+/frac{3/times 3}{4/times 3}

    6*2



    5*2

    +

    4*3



    3*3



    4 Simplify. Denominators are now the same.

    /frac{10}{12}+/frac{9}{12}

    12



    10

    +

    12



    9



    5 Join the denominators.

    /frac{10+9}{12}

    12



    10+9



    6 Simplify.

    /frac{19}{12}

    12



    19



    7 Convert to mixed fraction.

    1/frac{7}{12}1
