Answer 2

The value of 2/3 + 3/4 + 1/2 = 23/12.

Given:

The expression 2/3 + 3/4 + 1/2.

To Find:

The value of 2/3 + 3/4 + 1/2..

Solution:

To solve this problem we will have to follow the steps given below:

Step 1: Equate the denominators of each of the fractions by computing the LCM of the denominators and multiply the same number to the denominator to keep the value of the fraction unchanged.

Here the fractions are 2/3, 3/4, and1/2 .

The LCM of 3, 4, and 2 = 12.

Hence converting each of the given fractions with denominator as 12, we get

2/3 = (2 x 4)/(3 x 4) = 8/12

3/4 = (3 x 3)/(4 x 3) = 9/12

3/4 = (1 x 6)/(2 x 6) = 6/12.

Hence our given problem is,

2/3 + 3/4 + 1/2 = 8/12 + 9/12 + 6/12

Step 2: Add the numerators.

2/3 + ¾ + 1/2 = 8/12 + 9/12 + 6/12 = (8 + 9 + 6)/12

2/3 + ¾ + 1/2 = 23/12

Hence the value of 2/3 + 3/4 + 1/2 = 23/12.
