what is this in a mixed number.

Answer 1

18 and 11/16

Explanation:

I converted the two numbers into improper fractions which leaves me with

71/8+157/16

I thenn made sure I had common denominators, which means I need to multiply the first number by 2/2 and I'm left with:

142/16+157/16

I can now add the 2 numbers together and I get:

299/16

now we just need to convert the number into a mixed number by dividing, and I am left with:

18 and 11/16
