What is 60/60 + 3/4?

Let's add

Step 1

Our denominators (bottom numbers) don't match, so we can't add yet.

60 goes into 4 evenly, so we only need to multiply one term to get a common denominator.

Multiply 3 by 15, and get 45, then we multiply 4 by 15 and get 60.

We now have a new problem, that looks like this:

Step 2

Since our denominators match, we can add the numerators.

60 + 45 = 105

That gives us the sum, which is

Step 3

Now, do we need to simplify this fraction?

First, we attempt to divide it by 2...

Nope. Try the next prime number, 3...

Are both the numerator and the denominator evenly divisible by 3? Yes! So we reduce it:

Now, try the same number again.

Nope. Try the next prime number, 5...

Are both the numerator and the denominator evenly divisible by 5? Yes! So we reduce it:

Now, try the same number again.

No good. 5 is larger than 4. So we're done reducing.

Congratulations! Here's your final answer to 60/60 + 3/4
