Solution Steps

Convert decimal number $0.12$ to fraction $\frac{12}{100}$. Reduce the fraction $\frac{12}{100}$ to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out $4$.

$$\frac{3}{25}+\frac{9}{8}+\frac{7}{14}$$

Least common multiple of $25$ and $8$ is $200$. Convert $\frac{3}{25}$ and $\frac{9}{8}$ to fractions with denominator $200$.

$$\frac{24}{200}+\frac{225}{200}+\frac{7}{14}$$

Since $\frac{24}{200}$ and $\frac{225}{200}$ have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{24+225}{200}+\frac{7}{14}$$

Add $24$ and $225$ to get $249$.

$$\frac{249}{200}+\frac{7}{14}$$

Reduce the fraction $\frac{7}{14}$ to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out $7$.

$$\frac{249}{200}+\frac{1}{2}$$

Least common multiple of $200$ and $2$ is $200$. Convert $\frac{249}{200}$ and $\frac{1}{2}$ to fractions with denominator $200$.

$$\frac{249}{200}+\frac{100}{200}$$

Since $\frac{249}{200}$ and $\frac{100}{200}$ have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{249+100}{200}$$

Add $249$ and $100$ to get $349$.

$$\frac{349}{200}$$
