Question

What is the result of adding 1/2 and 1/3​

Answer 1

It is given that,

$\frac{1}{2}$ and $\frac{1}{3}$

As we have to simplify the given expression by adding it,

So, by using the BODMAS rule,

First, find the lowest common denominator,

$=>\frac{1\times 3}{2\times3}+\frac{1\times2}{3\times2}$

Multiply both numerator and denominators,

$=>\frac{3}{6}+\frac{2}{6}$

By adding both fractions,

$=>\frac{3+2}{6}\\=>\frac{5}{6}$

The result of adding $\frac{1}{2}$ and $\frac{1}{3}$ will be $\frac{5}{6}$

Answer 2

From the given question the correct answer is:

the result of adding 1/2 and 1/3​ is 5/6

Given :

$\frac{1}{2} +\frac{1}{3}$

To find :

Addition of given fraction:

Solution:

we have to find the Addition of $\frac{1}{2} +\frac{1}{3}$

So, we know that the rule of addition of fraction, if denominater are not same.

If the denominators are not the same, you must find the common

denominator.

=$\frac{1}{2} +\frac{1}{3}$

$=\frac{1\times3+2\times1}{2\times3}$

=$\frac{5}{6}$

Hence, the result of adding 1/2 and 1/3​ is 5/6
