To find the fraction of the day Teresa spends at school or eating meals, we need to add the fractions representing the time spent at school and the time spent eating meals.
Teresa spends 1/3 of her day at school and 1/12 of her day eating meals. Let's find a common denominator to add these fractions. The least common multiple (LCM) of 3 and 12 is 12.
