3/4 + -2/3.
First, find the common denominators.
3/4 = 9/12
2/4 = 8/12
9/12 - 8/12 = ?
- 1/12?
yes
9/12-8/12= 1/12
To find the sum of 3/4 and -2/3, you need to have a common denominator.
Step 1: Find the least common multiple (LCM) of 4 and 3, which is 12.
Step 2: Convert the fractions to have the common denominator 12.
3/4 becomes (3/4) * (3/3) = 9/12.
-2/3 becomes (-2/3) * (4/4) = -8/12.
Now, both fractions have a common denominator of 12.
Step 3: Add the fractions together.
9/12 + (-8/12) = 1/12.
Therefore, 3/4 + -2/3 = 1/12.
