Question

simplify 1 by 12 + 5 by 12 + 7 by 12​

Answer 1

1/12 + 5/12 + 7/12

= 1+5+7/12

= 13/12

Answer 2

Simplified form =

$\frac{13}{12} \: or \: 1 \frac{1}{12}$

GIVEN:- 1 by 12 + 5 by 12 + 7 by 12

TO FIND:- Simplified form of the given

SOLUTION:-

1 by 12 + 5 by 12 + 7 by 12

In mathematics, 'by' means divide

According to the question,

$\frac{1}{12} + \frac{5}{12} + \frac{7}{12}$

By taking LCM, we'll add all the numerators

$= \frac{1 + 5 + 7}{12} \\ = \frac{6 + 7}{12} \\ = \frac{13}{12} \\ = 1 \frac{1}{12}$

Hence, simplified form =

$\frac{13}{12} \: or \: 1 \frac{1}{12}$
