[tex] \sf \dashrightarrow \: \dfrac{ \left(\left(12 \right)^{ - 1} + \left(13 \right)^{ - 1} \right) }{\left( \dfrac{1}{5}\right) ^{ - 2} \times\left( \left( \dfrac{1}{5} \right) ^{ - 1} +\left( \dfrac{1}{8} \right) ^{ - 1} \right) ^{ - 1}}[/tex]

[tex] \sf \dashrightarrow \: \dfrac{ \left(\dfrac{1}{12} + \dfrac{1}{13} \right) }{\left( \dfrac{5}{1}\right) ^{ 2} \times\left( \dfrac{5}{1} + \dfrac{8}{1} \right) ^{ - 1}}[/tex]

  • LCM of 12 and 13 is 156

[tex] \sf \dashrightarrow \: \dfrac{ \left(\dfrac{1 \times 13 = 13}{12 \times 13 = 156} + \dfrac{1 \times 12 = 12}{13 \times 12 = 156} \right) }{\ \dfrac{25}{1} \times\left( \dfrac{5 + 8}{1} \right) ^{ - 1}}[/tex]

[tex] \sf \dashrightarrow \: \dfrac{ \left(\dfrac{13}{156} + \dfrac{12}{156} \right) }{\ \dfrac{25}{1} \times\left( \dfrac{13}{1} \right) ^{ - 1}}[/tex]

[tex] \sf \dashrightarrow \: \dfrac{ \left(\dfrac{13 + 12}{156} \right) }{\ \dfrac{25}{1} \times\dfrac{1}{13} }[/tex]

[tex] \sf \dashrightarrow \: \dfrac{25}{156} \div \dfrac{25}{13} [/tex]

[tex] \sf \dashrightarrow \: \dfrac{ \cancel{25}}{156} \times \dfrac{13}{ \cancel{25} }[/tex]

[tex] \sf \dashrightarrow \: \dfrac{13}{156} [/tex]

[tex] \sf \dashrightarrow \: \dfrac{1}{12} [/tex]

[tex] \sf \dashrightarrow \: Answer = \underline{\boxed{ \sf{ \dfrac{1}{12} }}}[/tex]
