7/8+7/12
The denominators must be the same so we have to find the lcm of 8 and 12 which is 24. To get 24 you must multiply 8 by 3 and 12 by 2. Then u multiply the numerators by the same number you multiplied the denominators with.
8x3=24, 7x3=21 and
12x2=24, 7x2=14
=
21/24+ 14/24
Now we can add the numerators together and your denominators stay the same .
21+24=35
So now your answer is 35/24
Then you turn the improper fraction into a mixed number 24x1= 24 plus 11= 35 so your answer is 1 11/24
