Solve 3/2+1/3

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

Evaluate

$$\frac{11}{6}\approx 1.833333333$$

Solution Steps

Least common multiple of 2 and 3 is 6. Convert \frac{3}{2} and \frac{1}{3} to fractions with denominator 6.

$$\frac{9}{6}+\frac{2}{6}$$

Since \frac{9}{6} and \frac{2}{6} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{9+2}{6}$$

Add 9 and 2 to get 11.

$$\frac{11}{6}$$

Factor

$$\frac{11}{2 \cdot 3} = 1\frac{5}{6} = 1.8333333333333333$$
