4/6 + 4/6 =
To add the fractions ( frac{4}{6} + frac{4}{6} ), we start by adding the numerators while keeping the denominator the same.
1. Add the numerators: ( 4 + 4 = 8 )
2. Keep the denominator: The denominator remains ( 6 ).
So, we have:
[
frac{8}{6}
]
Next, we can simplify this fraction. Both the numerator and denominator can be divided by 2:
[
frac{8 div 2}{6 div 2} = frac{4}{3}
]
This is an improper fraction, and we can also express it as a mixed number:
[
frac{4}{3} = 1 frac{1}{3}
]
Therefore, the final answer can be expressed as ( frac{4}{3} ) or as the mixed number ( 1 frac{1}{3} ).
