Jim and jon are painting a fence. jon painted 1/4 of the fence. jim painted 5/12 of the fence. how much of the fence did they paint in total?

2/3 of the fence

Step-by-step explanation:

Jim painted 1/4 of the fence

Jon painted 5/12 of the fence

Together they painted

1/4+5/12 of the fence

We need a common denominator to add the fractions

The common denominator is 12

1/4*3/3 + 5/12

3/12 + 5/12

8/12

This can be simplified by dividing the top and bottom by 4

2/3

Together, they painted 2/3 of the fence.

hi there

the slope is 1/3.

this is because from the y-intercept, you go up one, and you go to the right three, to get to the next exact point on the graph. this is known at the “rise over run.”

p.s. (if you need it).your y-intercept is -2, because that is the point on the graph where the line crosses the y-axis.

hope that : )
