Explanation Given Information: The fractions are as: 3 5 9 + 5 1 12 + 2 2 3 Formula used: Following steps are used to find the sum of mixed fraction: Step-1: Add the whole number parts of the mixed fraction. Step-2: Now, add the fractional parts and simplify it. Step-3: Convert improper fractions into whole number or mixed fractions. Step-4: Finally, add all the whole numbers and keep the fractional part. Calculation: Consider the fraction as: 3 5 9 + 5 1 12 + 2 2 3 First find the least common denominator of the fraction as: Write the denominator in a row 9 , 12 , 3 . Now, divide each denominator by 2 , the smallest prime factor as, 9 , 12 ÷ 2 = 6 , 3 Divide the quotients by 2 , 9 , 6 ÷ 2 = 3 , 3 Divide the quotients by 3 , 9 ÷ 3 = 3 , 3 ÷ 3 = 1 , 3 ÷ 3 = 1 Divide the quotients by 3 , 3 ÷ 3 = 1 , 1 , 1 Since, all the denominators are down to 1 , therefore the least common denominator is the product of the divisors i.e
