1/2 + ? = 11/12
What does ? equal
1/2 + ? = 11/12
1/2 = 6/12
6/12 + ? = 11/12
? = 11/12 - 6/12
? = 5/12
Thank you :-D
You're welcome. :-)
1/2 + ? =11/12
11/12 - 1/2 =?
11/12-6/12=?
5/12
now for checking
1/2 +5/12=6/12 +5/12=11/12
To find the value of "?", you need to solve the equation: 1/2 + ? = 11/12.
To begin, let's simplify the existing terms in the equation. We can see that 1/2 is already in its simplest form, so we don't need to do anything with it.
Next, we need to isolate the variable "?". We can do this by subtracting 1/2 from both sides of the equation:
1/2 + ? - 1/2 = 11/12 - 1/2
Simplifying this equation further, we have:
? = 11/12 - 1/2
To add the fractions, we need a common denominator, which is 12 in this case. So the fractions become:
? = 11/12 - 6/12
Now that both fractions have the same denominator, we can subtract the numerators:
? = (11 - 6)/12
Simplifying the numerator, we get:
? = 5/12
Therefore, the value of "?" in the equation 1/2 + ? = 11/12 equals 5/12.
