Solve quad2/3+3/2=

$$\quad \frac { 2 } { 3 } + \frac { 3 } { 2 } =$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{13}{6}\approx 2.166666667$$

Solution Steps

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

$$\frac{4}{6}+\frac{9}{6}$$

Since \frac{4}{6} and \frac{9}{6} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{4+9}{6}$$

Add 4 and 9 to get 13.

$$\frac{13}{6}$$

Factor

$$\frac{13}{2 \cdot 3} = 2\frac{1}{6} = 2.1666666666666665$$
