1/4+1/18

Let's calculate: $\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{18}$

ⓘ To add fractions, put them over the same denominator, then add the numerators. We choose $36$, the least common multiple of $4$ and $18$. Multiplying the numerator and the denominator by the same number does not change the fraction: $\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{18}$ = $\frac{1\times 9}{4\times 9}+\frac{1\times 2}{18\times 2}$ = $\frac{1\times 9+1\times 2}{4\times 9}$ = $\frac{9+2}{4\times 9}$

$\frac{9+2}{4\times 9}$

ⓘ Calculate the numerator and denominator before dividing: $9+2$ = $11$

ⅰ $4\times 9$ = $36$

▶Result:   $\frac{11}{36}$

The numeric value of: $\frac{11}{36}$ equals:

▷ $\approx 0.3056$
