Answer 1

Answer:

The two expressions are equivalent.

$\begin{gathered} \frac{7}{12}+\frac{1}{12} \\ \text{and } \\ \frac{4}{12}+\frac{4}{12} \\ \text{are equivalent} \end{gathered}$

Explanation:

Given the expression;

$\begin{gathered} \frac{7}{12}+\frac{1}{12} \\ \text{and } \\ \frac{4}{12}+\frac{4}{12} \end{gathered}$

To confirm if they are equivalent, let us simplify the expressions;

$\begin{gathered} \frac{7}{12}+\frac{1}{12}=\frac{8}{12} \\ \text{and } \\ \frac{4}{12}+\frac{4}{12}=\frac{8}{12} \end{gathered}$

Since both expressions give the same result, they are equivalent.

Therefore, the two expressions are equivalent.
