Francis ate 2/3 of a large pizza. Janette ate 1/4 of the same pizza. How much pizza did Francis and Janette eat in all?

2/3 = 8/12

1/4 = 3/12

8/12 + 3/12 = 11/12

Thanks!

You're welcome.

To find out how much pizza Francis and Janette ate in total, we need to add the fractions representing the amount each person ate.

To add fractions, the first step is to make sure the denominators (the numbers on the bottom) are the same. In this case, we need to find a common denominator for the fractions 2/3 and 1/4.

To find a common denominator, we can take the least common multiple (LCM) of the denominators 3 and 4. The LCM of 3 and 4 is 12.

Now we can rewrite the fractions with the new common denominator:

2/3 = (2/3) * (4/4) = 8/12
1/4 = (1/4) * (3/3) = 3/12

Now that the denominators are the same, we can add the numerators:

8/12 + 3/12 = 11/12

So Francis and Janette together ate 11/12 of the large pizza.
