Common denominator problem

Question:Common denominator problem

Why can I not get a common denominator from a/2+b/3? Maple returns 1/2*a + 1/3*b and not (3a+2b)/6. Normal(a/2+b/3) returns the same equation.

If I simplify(a/b+b/c) I get (a*c+b^2)/(b*c) but doesn't seem to work right with numbers in there.
