Solve 94/12+74/12=

$$9 \frac { 4 } { 12 } + 7 \frac { 4 } { 12 } =$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{50}{3}\approx 16.666666667$$

Solution Steps

Multiply 9 and 12 to get 108.

$$\frac{108+4}{12}+\frac{7\times 12+4}{12}$$

Add 108 and 4 to get 112.

$$\frac{112}{12}+\frac{7\times 12+4}{12}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{112}{12} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 4.

$$\frac{28}{3}+\frac{7\times 12+4}{12}$$

Multiply 7 and 12 to get 84.

$$\frac{28}{3}+\frac{84+4}{12}$$

Add 84 and 4 to get 88.

$$\frac{28}{3}+\frac{88}{12}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{88}{12} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 4.

$$\frac{28}{3}+\frac{22}{3}$$

Since \frac{28}{3} and \frac{22}{3} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{28+22}{3}$$

Add 28 and 22 to get 50.

$$\frac{50}{3}$$

Factor

$$\frac{2 \cdot 5 ^ {2}}{3} = 16\frac{2}{3} = 16.666666666666668$$
