7/12 + 7/12 please explain how to do this problem.

Add the numerators.

7/12 + 7/12 = 14/12

14/12 = 1 2/12 = 1 1/6

Thank you Ms. Sue!!!

You're welcome, Kim.

To find the sum of 7/12 and 7/12, follow these steps:

Step 1: Obtain a common denominator. In this case, the denominators of both fractions are already the same, which is 12.

Step 2: Add the numerators. Add 7 + 7 = 14.

Step 3: Write the sum over the common denominator. The sum is 14, and the common denominator is 12, so the fraction becomes 14/12.

Step 4: Simplify the fraction (if necessary). In this case, we can simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2. After simplification, the fraction becomes 7/6.

So, 7/12 + 7/12 = 7/6.
