Answer:

12 1/3

5 3/4

(change the denominator to something equal)

3 and 4 can both be multiplied by 6 to get 24

so change the denominators by multiplying by 6 to get 24.

and also you have to multiply the numerator also by 6 on both fractions.

it should look like this: 1/3 changes into 6/24. 3/4 changes into 18/24

then you are to add them since both denominators are the same.

18+6= 24/24 which equals 1.

so if it equals 1 your final answer will be: 18.

conclusion: multiply 6 on both the numerator and denominator on both fractions. add together to get answer.

hope this helps you.
