Math Problem Statement

1/12 + 1/12

Solution

The expression shown in the image is:

112+112\frac{1}{12} + \frac{1}{12}

To solve this, simply add the two fractions. Since the denominators are the same, we can add the numerators directly:

1+112=212\frac{1 + 1}{12} = \frac{2}{12}

Now simplify the fraction:

212=16\frac{2}{12} = \frac{1}{6}

So, the result is:

16\frac{1}{6}
