Solve 1/1*3+1/2*4

$$\frac { 1 } { 1 \times 3 } + \frac { 1 } { 2 \times 4 }$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{11}{24}\approx 0.458333333$$

Solution Steps

Multiply 1 and 3 to get 3.

$$\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{2\times 4}$$

Multiply 2 and 4 to get 8.

$$\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{8}$$

Least common multiple of 3 and 8 is 24. Convert \frac{1}{3} and \frac{1}{8} to fractions with denominator 24.

$$\frac{8}{24}+\frac{3}{24}$$

Since \frac{8}{24} and \frac{3}{24} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{8+3}{24}$$

Add 8 and 3 to get 11.

$$\frac{11}{24}$$

Factor

$$\frac{11}{2 ^ {3} \cdot 3} = 0.4583333333333333$$
