4/9 + 7/12 first needs to have a common denominator (lower number). Let's find the LCM.

  • 9 x 1 = 9
  • 12 x 1 = 12
  • 9 x 2 = 18
  • 12 x 2 = 24
  • 9 x 3 = 27
  • 12 x 3 = 36
  • 9 x 4 = 36

So our Lowest Common Multiple is 36.

4/9 (4/4) + 7/12 (3/3) =

16/36 + 21/36 =

37/36 = 1 1/36

So 4/9 + 7/12 = 1 and 1/36
