Simplify 2/6x+1/4y

1 answer

To simplify 2/6x + 1/4y, we need to find a common denominator for the fractions. The least common denominator between 6x and 4y is 12xy.

So, we rewrite the fractions with the common denominator:

2/6x = 4xy/12xy
1/4y = 3x/12xy

Now, when we add them together, we get:

4xy/12xy + 3x/12xy = (4xy + 3x)/12xy

Therefore, the simplified form of 2/6x + 1/4y is (4xy + 3x)/12xy.
