Hey there!


96(39)/(40) = (3,879)/(40) = 96.975 \\ \\ Answer: 96.975

How I got my result: Solve the mixed fraction:
96(39)/(40) by multiplying the outer number (
96 ) by the denominator (
40 ) then whatever
96(40) equals we add the numerator (
39 ) to it, then get the answer and keep the denominator the same. Lastly, divide our new number by
40 and it'll give you your result

Anyhow!

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
