Hello there!
For this you simply need to give both fractions a common denominator!
The easiest way to do this specific problem would be to make the denominator 12. Why 12? Because 4 x 3 = 12.
So:
1/4 --> ?/12 --> 1 (3) / 12 --> 3/12
2/3 --> ?/12 --> 2 (4) / 12 --> 8/12
Total amount of time means the sum (adding them together).
When adding fractions, you MUST have a common denominator! (Which is what we just did).
So 3/12 + 8/12 = (8+3) / 12 = 11/12 hours
Notice how the denominator stayed the same? When adding/subtracting fractions, the denominator stays the same! :)
Hope this helped!

Explanation:
Interest is defined as a fee charge for the use of money.
Answer:
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
There is definetly a whole number so thats correct
1. subtract 4 from 6 equals 2
2. turn that 4 to a 1 whole and leave what's alone
3. Look at what you did... 1 2/4
4. Take pride
Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewrite the equation as 4x - 6 = 2
Move all terms not containing x to the right side of the equation:
Add 6 to both sides of the equation.
4x = 2 + 6
Add 2 and 6.
4x = 8
Divide each term by 4 and simplify.
Divide each term in 4x = 8 by 4.
Reduce the expression by cancelling the common factors.
Divide 8 by 4.
x = 2
