Question

Warren drank 4 5 liter of water Monday before going jogging. He drank 2 3 liter of water after his jog. How much water did Warren drink altogether? Write your answer as a mixed number.

Answer 1

Answer: Warren drank 1 7/15 Liters of water altogether

Explanation:

Step 1

Amount of water drank before jogging = 4/5 liters

Amount of water drank after jogging =2/3 liters

Amount of water drank altogether =Amount of water drank before jogging +Amount of water drank after jogging

Step 2

Amount of water drank altogether = 4/5 + 2/3

The LCM of 5 and 3 gives 15 , so we have the denominator becoming 15,

4/5 + 2/3 = / 15

15 divided by 5 gives 3 multiplied by 4 gives us 12 and also 15 divided by 3 gives 5 multiplied by 2 gives 10 , such that we have

12 + 10 / 15

= 22/ 15

=1 7/15
