Calculation with Distribution First, start by distributing the six by each fraction. (Multiply 6 by each number inside the parenthesis) 6*1/2= 3 6*2/3= 4 6*3/4= 4 1/2 Then add all of the solutions together. 3+4+4.5= 11 1/2
Calculation without Distribution Add all the fractions together then multiply by 6. 1/2+2/3+3/4= 1 11/12 1 11/12* 6= 11 1/2
