1/2+11/12

Let's evaluate: $\frac{1}{2}+\frac{11}{12}$

ⓘ To add fractions, put them over the same denominator, then add the numerators. We choose $12$, the least common multiple of $2$ and $12$. Multiplying the numerator and the denominator by the same number does not change the fraction: $\frac{1}{2}+\frac{11}{12}$ = $\frac{1\times 6}{2\times 6}+\frac{11}{12}$ = $\frac{1\times 6+11}{12}$ = $\frac{6+11}{12}$

$\frac{6+11}{12}$

ⓘ The numerator and the denominator are computed before the division: $6+11$ = $17$

▶Result:   $\frac{17}{12}$

The numeric value of: $\frac{17}{12}$ is:

▷ $\approx 1.4167$
