Question

Clare poured 5/12 of a gallon of water into a bucket. Later, she added 1/3 of a gallon more. How much water is in the bucket now?

Answer 1

Answer:

the amount of water = 5/12 gallon + 1/3 gallon

now we take the L.C.M of 12 and 3 which is 12

so, 5/12 + 4/12 = total amout of water

9/12 = total amount of water

Answer 2

Answer:

9/12 gallon

explanation:

amount of water in the bucket= 5/12 gallon

amount of water added = 1/3 gallon

total amount of water = 5/12+ 1/3

                                    = 5/12 + 4/12

                                     = 5+4/12

                                     = 9/12 gallons of water

hence the total water in the bucket is 9/12 gallon.
