Answer:
Largest Totals : 69/20
Smallest Totals : 121/40
Explanation:
Given:
Charlie adds together two of his four number cards. Find the largest and smallest totals that Charlie can make. Give your answers as improper fractions in their simplest form.
Solve:
First let change all to improper fractions:
7/4 {already a improper fractions}
1 3/8 = 11/8
1 7/10 = 17/10
33/20 {already a improper fractions}
Thus we have:
7/4
11/8
17/10
33/20
According to the solving above ,
⇒ 70/40 , 55/40, 68/40, 66/40
⇒ 70/40 > 68/40 > 66/40 > 55/40
⇒ 7/4 > 1 7/10 > 33/20 > 1 3/8
⇒ Largest Totals : 7/4 + 1 7/10 = 69/20 = 3 9/20
⇒ Smallest Totals : 33/20 + 1 3/8 = 121/40 = 3 1/40
Since, it says given your answers as improper fractions in their simplest form:
Thus,
Largest Totals : 69/20
Smallest Totals : 121/40
