Answer:

125/12

Explanation:

First, let's write 10 as a fraction with denominator 12, which is 10=120/12

then 10 5/12 actually means 10+5/12 and now:

120/12+5/12

=125/12

This is because we can add the numerators up if the denominators are the same.

So there you go! Hoped I helped!

To get the improper fraction of 10 5/12, multiply the denominator of the fraction and the number on the left which is 10x12=120.

Then you want to add the numerator 5 to 120 to get 125.

Using the denominator 12, and the numerator 125, there is your answer. 125/12.
Hope it wasn't too confusing..
Hope this helped :)
