add the following fractions and simplify if possible 1/8+2/16​

Sagot :

Answer:

1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The fractions have unlike denominators. First, find the Least Common Denominator and rewrite the fractions with the common denominator.

LCD(1/8, 2/16) = 16

Multiply both the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the number that makes its denominator equal the LCD. This is basically multiplying each fraction by 1.

(18×22)+(216×11)=?

Complete the multiplication and the equation becomes

216+216=?

The two fractions now have like denominators so you can add the numerators.

Then:

2+216=416

This fraction can be reduced by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor of 4 and 16 using

GCF(4,16) = 4

4÷416÷4=14

Therefore:

18+216=14
