Answer:

20 ¹¹/₆₀

Explanation:

First, separate the fractions and the whole numbers, then combine the whole numbers:


(28(3)/(5) -10(2)/(3) )+2(1)/(4)\\(28-10+2)+((3)/(5) -(2)/(3)+(1)/(4))\\20+((3)/(5) -(2)/(3)+(1)/(4))

Next, find the least common denominator.

In this case, LCD = 3 × 4 × 5 = 60.

Write each fraction with the new denominator:


(3)/(5)* (12)/(12) =(36)/(60) \\\\(2)/(3)* (20)/(20) =(40)/(60) \\\\(1)/(4)* (15)/(15) =(15)/(60)

Now perform the addition and subtraction.


20+((3)/(5) -(2)/(3)+(1)/(4))\\20+((36)/(60) -(40)/(60)+(15)/(60))\\20+((36-40+15)/(60))\\20+((11)/(60))\\20(11)/(60)

11/60 doesn't reduce, so the final answer is 20 ¹¹/₆₀.
