Respuesta :
Since we know that he ate 1/4 pound one time, and 1/6 another time, we have to add up the fractions.
1/4+1/6
LCM of 4 and 6 = 12
3/12 + 2/12
Add the numerators:
5/12
So, he ate 5/12 of a pound of bars in both breaks.
Hope this helps!

He ate 5/12 in all because 1/4 and 1/6 are equal to 3/12 and 2/12 and the sum of those two is 5/12
