Answer 1

Answer: Total amount is given by

`44(13)/(18)`

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Amount of a cup Mylee has is given by

`17(1)/(2)=(35)/(2)`

Amount of a cup Samiya has is given by

`27(2)/(9)=(245)/(9)`

Total amount of cup Samiya and Mylee has

`(35)/(2)+(245)/(9)=(315+490)/(18)=(805)/(18)=44(13)/(18)`

Hence, total amount is given by

`44(13)/(18)`
