Question

Answer 1

1/2

Explanation:

Given the mathematical expression;

`\frac {1}{3} + (1)/(6) = 0`

First of all, we would determine the lowest common multiple for 3 and 6.

Lcm = 6

`\frac {1}{3} + (1)/(6) = \frac {2 + 1}{6}`

`\frac {2 + 1}{6} = \frac {3}{6}`

`\frac {3}{6} = \frac {1}{2}`

Therefore, 1/3 + 1/6 = 1/2
