6 + 17/20

  • Make 6 have a common denominator with 17/20 before you can add them together.
  • Multiply 6/1 (which is the same as 6) by 20/20.

6/1 * 20/20 = 120/20

  • Add 120/20 and 17/20 together; add the numerators but keep the same denominators.

120/20 + 17/20 = 137/20

Answer:

  1. Improper fraction: 137/20
  2. Mixed number: 6 17/20
  3. Decimal: 6.85
