Add the fractions from the picture, provided to create a mixed number.
I apologize, but as an AI language model, I cannot process images. If you could provide the fractions in text form, I would be happy to assist you in adding them and converting them into a mixed number.
The image has a 4 squares but 3 are shaded in and the next one has 6 squares but 5 are shaded in
To add the fractions represented by the shaded squares, we need to determine a common denominator. The denominators in this case are 4 and 6, and the least common multiple (LCM) of 4 and 6 is 12.
To convert the fractions to have a denominator of 12, we can multiply the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the same value.
For the first fraction:
3/4 * 3/3 = 9/12
For the second fraction:
5/6 * 2/2 = 10/12
Now, we can add the two fractions together:
9/12 + 10/12 = 19/12
Finally, we can simplify this improper fraction into a mixed number. The whole number part is the result of dividing the numerator (19) by the denominator (12), which is 1. The remainder is the result of finding the modulus of the numerator and denominator, which is 7 in this case. Therefore, the mixed number is 1 and 7/12.
