The sum of 1/6 + 2/3 + 1/4 = 13/12 = 1 ¹/₁₂
In adding a fraction, the denominator should be the same
[tex]\frac{1}{2} = \frac{numerator}{denominator}[/tex]
If the denominator is not the same we should convert them to the equivalent fraction with the same denominator. In that case above, the equivalent denominator would be 12. We will then multiply each denominator to convert them into the same denominator
[tex]\frac{1}{6} + \frac{2}{3} + \frac{1}{4}[/tex]
= [tex](\frac{1*2}{6*2}) + (\frac{2*4}{3*4}) + (\frac{1*3}{4*3})[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{2}{12} + \frac{8}{12} + \frac{3}{12}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{13}{12} \\[/tex]
= 1¹/₁₂
in the mixed fraction [tex]\frac{13}{12}[/tex] = 1¹/₁₂
