Question

Show that


`(7)/(27) + 1 (7)/(9) = 2 (1)/(27)`
Write down all the steps in your working ​

Answer 1

2 wholes and 1 27th

Explanation:

so you have to times the bottom numbers so there the same 9x3=27 then times the top by three so its 21 on the top the you plus 1 whole so then you add it all together you should get 2 wholes and 1 27th

Answer 2

Explanation:

First add the LHS side,

`\hookrightarrow(7)/(27) + 1 (7)/(9) \\ \hookrightarrow(7)/(27) + (16)/(9) \\ \hookrightarrow (7 * 1+ 16 * 3)/(27) \\ \hookrightarrow \: (55)/(27) \\ \hookrightarrow \: 2 (1)/(27)`

Hence LHS= RHS Proved!
