First you should Simplify [tex] \frac{20}{24} = \frac{5}{6} [/tex] [tex] \frac{3}{6} + \frac{1}{3} = \frac{5}{6} [/tex]
Solution 1. Find the LCM between 6 and 3 which is 8 2. Times 3 and 6 to both sides of the equation respectively. [tex] \frac{3 \times 3}{18} + \frac{6 \times 1}{18} [/tex] [tex] \frac{9 + 6}{18} = \frac{15}{18} [/tex] 3. Simplify the answer by dividing by 3.
