To add the fractions, follow these steps:
1. Convert the Mixed Number: First, convert the mixed number (8 frac{4}{12}) into an improper fraction.
– Multiply the whole number (8) by the denominator (12), which gives (8 times 12 = 96).
– Add the numerator (4) to this product: (96 + 4 = 100).
– So, (8 frac{4}{12} = frac{100}{12}).
2. Add the Fractions: Now, add (frac{100}{12}) and (frac{1}{12}).
[
frac{100}{12} + frac{1}{12} = frac{100 + 1}{12} = frac{101}{12}
]
3. Convert Back to Mixed Number: Convert (frac{101}{12}) back to a mixed number.
– Divide 101 by 12, which gives 8 as the whole number (since (12 times 8 = 96)).
– The remainder is (101 – 96 = 5). So, it can be written as:
[
8 frac{5}{12}
]
4. Final Answer: Therefore, (8 frac{4}{12} + frac{
