Since 1/6 is the same as 2/12, you can look at it like this:
1/6 + 1/12 = ?
2/12 + 1/12 = 3/12
Then, dividing the numerator (top) and the denominator (bottom) by 3:
3/12 = 1/4

first you are going to make a common denimerator by multiplying 6*12 then you are going to multiply 12*1+6*1
=
[(12*1)+(6*1)]/6*12=18/72=1/4

3/12 and 1/4 are the same quantity, but 3/12 is an "improper fraction". To make it "proper" it must be "reduced" to 1/4.
