ANSWER


(13)/(12)or1(1)/(12)

Step-by-step explanation

We want to find the sum:


(2)/(6)+(3)/(4)

To do this, find the Lowest Common Multiple (LCM) of the denominators and divide by each numerator and multiply by the respective numerator:


\begin{gathered} (2)/(6)+(3)/(4) \\ ((2\cdot2)+(3\cdot3))/(12) \\ \frac{4+9_{}}{12} \end{gathered}

Now, find the sum of the numerators:


\begin{gathered} (13)/(12) \\ =1(1)/(12) \end{gathered}

That is the answer.
