Answer:
25/6 or 4 1/6
a) Multiply the whole number 2 by the denominator 8. Whole number 2 equally 2 * 8/
8 = 16/8
b) Add the answer from previous step 16 to the numerator 5. New numerator is 16 + 5 = 21
Write a previous answer (new numerator 21) over the denominator 8.
Two and five eighths is twenty-one eighths
Add: 21/8 + 1/6= 21 · 3/8 · 3 + 1 · 4/6 · 4= 63/24 + 4/24 = 63 + 4/24 = 67/24
Hope this helps!!
