Respuesta :

6(1/2 + 2/3 + 3/4)

= 6(1/2) + 6(2/3) + 6(3/4)

= 3 + 4 + 4 1/2

= 11 1/2

Answer

11 1/2  (23/2 or 11.5)


Answer:

With distribution:

6(1/2) + 6(2/3) + 6(3/4)  

= 3 + 4 + 4 ½

= 11 1/2

Without Distribution:

Find the least common denominator which is 12.  

6(6/12 + 8/12 + 9/12)

Add the fractions:  

6(23/12)

Then multiply

6/1 x 23/12 = 138/12

Simplify:

138 / 12 = 11/2
