Answer:

1/12 + 3/12 = 4/12 (or 1/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

we want to express

1/12 + 1/4 as 1/12 + something / 12

1/12 + 1/4 = 1/12 + something/12

we already have the 1/12 part, so we're left with

1/4 = something / 12

first, we can calculate (denominator we want) / (denominator we have) = 12/4 = 3

then, we want to multiply our current value (1/4) by our result of the multiplication divided by itself.

3/3 = 1

1/4 = 1/4 * 1 = 1/4 * 3/3 = 3/12

thus, our second value is 3/12

we then have 1/12 + 3/12

if we have the same denominators, we can simply add the numerators up

1/12 + 3/12 = (1+3)/12 = 4/12
