Calculate with distributions and without distribution: Find the value of this fractions computation: 6{1/2+2/3+3/4}

Answer 1

with distribution:
6( 1/2 + 2/3) + 3/4)
= 3 + 4 + 9/2
=7 9/2 or 11 1/2 or 23/9

without distribution:
add up the 3 fractions in the bracket, first obtaining a common denominator, then multiply that by 6 , reduce your fraction answer to lowest terms
You MUST get the same answer.

Is It (1/2+2/3+3/4)=1 11/12 x6=11 1/2?
