Solve 4/8+6/3+12/4+5/10

$$\frac{ 4 }{ 8 } + \frac{ 6 }{ 3 } + \frac{ 12 }{ 4 } + \frac{ 5 }{ 10 }$$

Evaluate

$$6$$

Solution Steps

Reduce the fraction \frac{4}{8} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 4.

$$\frac{1}{2}+\frac{6}{3}+\frac{12}{4}+\frac{5}{10}$$

Divide 6 by 3 to get 2.

$$\frac{1}{2}+2+\frac{12}{4}+\frac{5}{10}$$

Convert 2 to fraction \frac{4}{2}.

$$\frac{1}{2}+\frac{4}{2}+\frac{12}{4}+\frac{5}{10}$$

Since \frac{1}{2} and \frac{4}{2} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{1+4}{2}+\frac{12}{4}+\frac{5}{10}$$

Add 1 and 4 to get 5.

$$\frac{5}{2}+\frac{12}{4}+\frac{5}{10}$$

Divide 12 by 4 to get 3.

$$\frac{5}{2}+3+\frac{5}{10}$$

Convert 3 to fraction \frac{6}{2}.

$$\frac{5}{2}+\frac{6}{2}+\frac{5}{10}$$

Since \frac{5}{2} and \frac{6}{2} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{5+6}{2}+\frac{5}{10}$$

Add 5 and 6 to get 11.

$$\frac{11}{2}+\frac{5}{10}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{5}{10} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 5.

$$\frac{11}{2}+\frac{1}{2}$$

Since \frac{11}{2} and \frac{1}{2} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{11+1}{2}$$

Add 11 and 1 to get 12.

$$\frac{12}{2}$$

Divide 12 by 2 to get 6.

$$6$$

Factor

$$2\times 3$$
