Solve 12/3+32/6

$$1 \frac { 2 } { 3 } + 3 \frac { 2 } { 6 }$$

Evaluate

$$5$$

Solution Steps

Multiply 1 and 3 to get 3.

$$\frac{3+2}{3}+\frac{3\times 6+2}{6}$$

Add 3 and 2 to get 5.

$$\frac{5}{3}+\frac{3\times 6+2}{6}$$

Multiply 3 and 6 to get 18.

$$\frac{5}{3}+\frac{18+2}{6}$$

Add 18 and 2 to get 20.

$$\frac{5}{3}+\frac{20}{6}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{20}{6} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

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

Since \frac{5}{3} and \frac{10}{3} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

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

Add 5 and 10 to get 15.

$$\frac{15}{3}$$

Divide 15 by 3 to get 5.

$$5$$

Factor
