Answer: 6 19/24 (I'm so sorry if this is wrong)

Step-by-step explanation: Rewriting the equation with parts separated

=6 + 2/3 + 2/16

Solving the fraction parts

2/3 + 2/16 = ?

Find the LCD of 2/3 and 2/16 and rewrite to solve with the equivalent fractions.

LCD = 48

32/48+6/48=38/48

Reducing the fraction part, 38/48,

38/48 = 19/24

Combining the whole and fraction parts

6 + 19/24 = 6 19/24

Solution by Formulas

First:

Convert any mixed numbers to fractions.

Reduce fractions where possible.

Then your initial equation becomes:

20/3 + 1/8

Applying the fractions formula for addition,

= (20 × 8) + (1 × 3)/3 × 8

=160 + 3/24

=163/24

Simplifying 163/24, the answer is

=6 19/24
