↓Steps Explained:↓
We want to add the following 2 fractions:
Denominator 1 ≠ Denominator 2.We need matching denominators
Multiply fraction 1 numerator * fraction 2 denominator.
Multiply fraction 2 numerator by the fraction 1 denominator
We add those 2 results, and get our numerator.
Our denominator is the product of the denominators of both fractions.
| Fraction 1 + Fraction 2 = | Numerator 1 x Denominator 2 + Numerator 2 x Denominator 1 |
| Denominator 1 x Denominator 2 |
| Fraction 1 + Fraction 2 = | 5 x 18 + 5 x 12 |
| 12 x 18 |
| Fraction 1 + Fraction 2 = | 90 + 60 |
| 216 |
| Fraction 1 + Fraction 2 = | 150 |
| 216 |
Reduce our fraction
Reduce the numerator by GCF
(1/6) x 150 = 25
Reduce the denominator by GCF
(1/6) x 216 = 36
| Answer = | 25 |
| 36 |
