Step-by-step explanation:
What I would do is first combine the [tex]\frac{5}{12}[/tex] together...
[tex]\frac{5}{12}+\frac{5}{12}[/tex]= [tex]\frac{10}{12}[/tex]
Then The [tex]\frac{7}{12}[/tex] together....
[tex]\frac{7}{12}[/tex]+[tex]\frac{7}{12}[/tex]= [tex]\frac{14}{12}[/tex]
Then [tex]\frac{10}{12} +\frac{14}{12} = \frac{24}{2}[/tex]
Simplify and you will get 2!!!!
I hope this helps!
Edit: I just realized I answered this to late...
