Kurt attended music classes for 1/6 of a year. Then he attended swimming classes for 1/4 of a year. What fraction of a year, in simplest form, did Kurt attend music or swimming classes?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The  fraction of a year which Kurt attend music or swimming classes is [tex]\frac{5}{12}[/tex]  .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The fraction of a year which Kurt attend music classes = [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

The fraction of a year which Kurt attend swimming classes = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Let The  fraction of a year which Kurt attend music or swimming classes = The fraction of a year which Kurt attend music classes + The fraction of a year which Kurt attend swimming classes

or, The  fraction of a year which Kurt attend music or swimming classes = [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Or, The  fraction of a year which Kurt attend music or swimming classes = [tex]\frac{2+3}{12}[/tex]

Or, The  fraction of a year which Kurt attend music or swimming classes = [tex]\frac{5}{12}[/tex]

Hence The  fraction of a year which Kurt attend music or swimming classes is [tex]\frac{5}{12}[/tex]  . Answer
