Answer:
7 and 1/24
Explanation:
4 7/8 + 2 1/6
First when adding fractions, we want to have a common denominator. To do that, we must multiply the fractions until we get a desired denominator. We can find LCM.
The LCM of 6 and 8 is 24, so we must multiply accordingly.
We can put this into improper fraction form:
39/8 + 13/6
Then multiply accordingly. Multiply by 3 on both sides for the first fraction, and multiply by 4 on both sides for the second to get a denominator of 24.
117/24 + 52/24
Now, we can add the fractions.
169/24
Simplify
7 and 1/24
