find the sum.\n$\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{7}=\frac{?}{?}$

Explanation:

Step1: Find a common denominator

The common denominator of 2 and 7 is (2\times7 = 14).

Step2: Rewrite the fractions

(\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1\times7}{2\times7}=\frac{7}{14}), (\frac{1}{7}=\frac{1\times2}{7\times2}=\frac{2}{14}).

Step3: Add the fractions

(\frac{7}{14}+\frac{2}{14}=\frac{7 + 2}{14}=\frac{9}{14})

Answer:

(\frac{9}{14})
