The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem \( \frac{2}{3} + \frac{1}{7} \), follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the denominators The denominators of the fractions are 3 and 7. ### Step 2: Find the Least Common Multiple (LCM) To add the fractions, we need a common denominator. The LCM of 3 and 7 is 21. ### Step 3: Convert each fraction to have the common denominator Now we will convert each fraction to have the denominator of 21. - For \( \frac{2}{3} \): - Multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 7 (because \( 3 \times 7 = 21 \)): \[ \frac{2 \times 7}{3 \times 7} = \frac{14}{21} \] - For \( \frac{1}{7} \): - Multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 3 (because \( 7 \times 3 = 21 \)): \[ \frac{1 \times 3}{7 \times 3} = \frac{3}{21} \] ### Step 4: Add the fractions Now that both fractions have the same denominator, we can add them: \[ \frac{14}{21} + \frac{3}{21} = \frac{14 + 3}{21} = \frac{17}{21} \] ### Final Answer Thus, \( \frac{2}{3} + \frac{1}{7} = \frac{17}{21} \). ---
