Answer
Option A is correct.
-3 ¼ + (-2/3) + 9 5/8
= 5 17/24
Step-by-step explanation
To evaluate this, we need to convert the mixed fractions into improper fractions.
3 ¼ = (13/4)
9 5/8 = (77/8)
-3 ¼ + (-2/3) + 9 5/8
= (-13/4) + (-2/3) + (77/8)
Then we take the LCM which is 24
(-13/4) + (-2/3) + (77/8)
= (-78/24) + (-16/24) + (231/24)
= (-78 - 16 + 231)/24
= (137/24)
= 5 17/24
Hope this Helps!!!
