6 2/7 + 7 1/2
To start, we will separate the whole numbers and fractions. 6 and 7 are the whole numbers and 2/7 and 1/2 are the fractions. We will add them separately first.
(6 + 7) + (2/7 + 1/2)
Now calculate:
(13) + (11/14)
***If you are confused as to how to add fractions, here’s how. You will find a common denominator and add the numerators while keeping the denominator the same. The common denominator in this case is 14, since 7 and 2 goes to 14. We will multiply both top and bottom of 2/7 by 2 to get 14 as a denominator. That gives us 4/14. Now we will do the same for 1/2, but multiply it by 7, which gives us 7/14. So 4/14 + 7/14. Add the numerators and keep the denominator and you get 11/14.
Now the last step is simply combine the two answers, both the whole number and fraction.
(13) + (11/14) = 13 11/14
13 11/14 can also be written as 193/4 as an improper fraction or 13.8 as a decimal.
