Answer:

Solving
(9)/(12)+(3)/(12) we get 1.

Option A is correct answer.

Explanation:

We need to solve
(9)/(12)+(3)/(12)

For solving fractions we need to take LCM of denominators.

The LCM of 12, 12 is 12

So, solving:


(9)/(12)+(3)/(12)\\=(9*1+3*1)/(12)\\=(9+3)/(12)\\=(12)/(12)\\=1

So, solving
(9)/(12)+(3)/(12) we get 1.

Option A is correct answer.
