Answer: 2/3

Explanation:

1/4 = 1 x 3/4 x 3 = 3/12
5/12 = 5/12

Therefore,
1/4 + 5/12
= 3/12 + 5/12
= 8/12 = (8/4)/(12/4) = 2/3

Answer:


(2)/(3)

Explanation:

multiply numerator and denominator of
(1)/(4) by 3


(1)/(4) =
(3(1))/(3(4)) =
(3)/(12)

the 2 fractions now have a common denominator of 12 and can be added


(1)/(4) +
(5)/(12) =
(3)/(12) +
(5)/(12) =
(8)/(12) =
(2)/(3)
