Description

This example demonstrates how to combine the rational expressions 1/2 + 1/3. The solution involves finding a common denominator, which is 6, and then adding the fractions to get 5/6. To solve this, we multiply each fraction by the appropriate factor to create equivalent fractions with the common denominator: (1 * 3/3) + (1 * 2/2) = 3/6 + 2/6. Then, we add the numerators while keeping the common denominator: (3 + 2)/6 = 5/6.
