Question

Solve t⅓ + t½=12.Find the value of t

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:First you need to remove t as a factor giving you:

t(1/3 +1/2) = 12

next add 1/3 and 1/2 to do this multiply both by the denominator of the other (bottom part of the fraction). so

1/3 x 2 = 2/6 and 1/2 x 3 = 3/6

added together gives 5/6

so the equation is t(5/6) = 12

next divide by 5/6

so t = 12/(5/6) which is equivalent to (12*6) / 5 = 14.4

Hope that helps.
