Question

1/2+1/3+1/4+1/6 from step By step​

Answer 1

➤ Answer :-

${\tt \longrightarrow \dfrac{1}{2} + \dfrac{1}{3} + \dfrac{1}{4} + \dfrac{1}{6}}$

First, convert them into like fractions by taking the LCM of the denominators i.e, 2,3,4 and 6.

LCM of 2,3,4 and 6 is 12.

${\tt \longrightarrow \dfrac{1 \times 6}{2 \times 6} + \dfrac{1 \times 4}{3 \times 4} + \dfrac{1 \times 3}{4 \times 3} + \dfrac{1 \times 2}{6 \times 2}}$

${\tt \longrightarrow \dfrac{6}{12} + \dfrac{4}{12} + \dfrac{3}{12} + \dfrac{2}{12}}$

${\tt \longrightarrow \dfrac{6 + 4 + 3 + 2}{12} = \dfrac{15}{12}}$

${\tt \longrightarrow \cancel \dfrac{15}{12} = \dfrac{5}{4} = \boxed{\tt 1 \dfrac{1}{4}}}$

$\Huge\therefore$The answer is ${\tt 1 \dfrac{1}{4}}$.
