Fractions must share a common denominator in order to be added or subtracted. The common denominator is the least common multiple of all the denominators.
What is \( \frac{8}{4} \) + \( \frac{9}{6} \)?
| \( \frac{6}{12} \) | |
| \( \frac{8}{12} \) | |
| 2 \( \frac{9}{17} \) | |
| 3\(\frac{1}{2}\) |
