Question

What is 2 2/3+1 1/2 I’m not really good at math

Answer 1

You need to turn them into improper fractions first before anything


So 2 2/3—— 8/3
1 1/2 ——— 3/2
LCD—— 6
Divide the lcd by the denominator


So 3/6=2*8=16
Do the same for the next fraction

3/2—- 6/2=3*3=9

Add 16+9=25/6 and you get 4 1/6 as a mixed number

I hope that helped

Answer 2

This would equal 4 1/6 or as an improper fraction 25/6

Explanation:

The way we do this is by first turning the mixed numbers into improper fractions. We do this by multiplying the whole number by the denominator and then adding it to the numerator.

For the first fraction we multiply 2 by three then add two. The denominator stays the same.

This product and sum becomes your numerator. So now the first fraction is 8/3.

We then change the second fraction. We multiply 2 by 1 then add 1. This will equal 3/2.

Now we have to change the denominator's to make them equal. So we multiply the first fractions denominator and numerator by 2 and the other fractions denominator and numerator by 3.

We multiply the numerator because what ever you do to the bottom you do to the top.

So the equation you should have now is 16/6 + 9/6.

Then you add the numerator's. This would be 33/6. This is your answer. But we have to simplify first. 25 can not be divided by 6 so we convert it to an improper fraction. 6 can go into 25 4 times so the answer would be 4 1/6.

if you have any question's just ask :D
