estimate of 6/10 + 7/12

4 answers

Each of the fractions is a little over half.

My estimate is a little over 1, perhaps 1 1/4
60 = 6 * 10

60 = 5 * 12

6 / 10 = 6 * 6 / ( 6 * 10 ) = 36 / 60

7 / 12 = 7 * 5 ( 5 * 12 ) = 35 / 60

6 / 10 + 7 / 12 = 36 / 60 + 25 / 60 =

71 / 60 = ( 60 + 11 ) / 60 =

60 / 60 + 11 / 60 =

1 11 / 60

6 / 10 + 7 / 12 = 71 / 60 = 1 11 / 60
Correction :

6 / 10 + 7 / 12 = 36 / 60 + 35 / 60
how do you estimate 6/10 7/12
