Here is your answer:

In order to solve this equation you have to find the common denominator then add:


  • (12)/(6) + (1)/(2)
  • Simplify:

  • (12)/(6) / 6 = (2)/(1)

  • (2)/(1) + (1)/(2)
  • Find common denominator:
  • Denominator is 2:

  • 2 + 1 = 3
  • =
    (5)/(2) or 1(1)/(2)

Therefore your answer is option D "2 1/2."

Hope this helps!
