$\"%28n%2B1%2F3%29%2B%28n%2B2%2F4%29=1\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"n%2Bn%2B1%2F3%2B2%2F4=1\"$ Group like terms and add
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2n%2B10%2F12=1\"$ Solve for n
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2n=1-5%2F6\"$ subtract 5/6 (10/12 reduced) from both sides
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2n=%286-5%29%2F6\"$ Subtract fractions
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2n=1%2F6\"$ Divide both sides by 2
\n" ); document.write( " $\"n=1%2F12\"$
