Question

What is the sum of 5 4/6 + 4 1/3

Answer 1

10

Explanation:

First convert them to improper fractions

5 4/6 = (5×6 + 4)/6= 34/6

4 1/3 = (4×3 + 1)/3=13/3

Now make them have the same denominator. In order to do this, you must multiple 13/3 by 2/2, so both the denominators equal 6.

13/3 × 2/2 = 26/6

34/6 + 26/6 = 60/6 = 10
