Party pizza

At a party, there were some pizzas of the same size. Amelia ate 1/3 of a pizza. Chris ate 1/3 of a pizza. Miguel ate 5/12 of a pizza. How many pizzas did the three children eat?

Correct answer:

x =  13/12 = 1 ¹⁄₁₂

Step-by-step explanation:

$x=\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{3}+\frac{5}{12}=\frac{4}{12}+\frac{4}{12}+\frac{5}{12}=\frac{4+4+5}{12}=\frac{13}{12}=1\frac{1}{12}=1.0833$
