Estimate the sum of the fractions:

\[ \frac{7}{12} + \frac{5}{6} \]

7/12+5/6
=7/12+10/12
=17/12
=12/12+5/12
=1+5/12
1+5/12≈1.45

To estimate 12 7 ​ + 6 5 ​ , we convert 6 5 ​ to 12 10 ​ , giving us 12 17 ​ or approximately 1.42 as the sum. This result can be interpreted as 1 and 12 5 ​ , where 12 5 ​ is close to 0.42. Thus, the estimated sum is around 1.42.
