Question

UpStudy AI · Accepted Answer

To add the fractions $$ \frac{1}{2} $$ and $$ \frac{1}{3} $$, follow these steps:

1. **Find a Common Denominator:**
   - The denominators are 2 and 3.
   - The **Least Common Denominator (LCD)** for 2 and 3 is **6**.

2. **Convert Each Fraction to Have the LCD:**
   - $$ \frac{1}{2} = \frac{1 \times 3}{2 \times 3} = \frac{3}{6} $$
   - $$ \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1 \times 2}{3 \times 2} = \frac{2}{6} $$

3. **Add the Converted Fractions:**
   - $$ \frac{3}{6} + \frac{2}{6} = \frac{3 + 2}{6} = \frac{5}{6} $$

So,
$$ \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{3} = \frac{5}{6} $$

**Answer:** $$ \frac{5}{6} $$
$$ \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{3} = \frac{5}{6} $$
