Answer:

The final answer is 37/6 = 6.16

Explanation:

Given:


3(2)/(6)+(2(1)/(6) +(4)/(6))

We have to work under the parenthesis first.

So


(2(1)/(6) +(4)/(6) )=((6*2)+1)/(6) +(4)/(6)

Note :
a(b)/(c)=(ac+b)/(c)

Taking the LCM of the denominators and adding it.


(13)/(6) +(4)/(6) =(13+4)/(6)=(17)/(6)

Now we will put this with the earlier values.


3(2)/(6)+(17)/(6)


((3*6)+2)/(6)+(17)/(6)


(20)/(6) +(17)/(6) =(20+17)/(6)= (37)/(6) =6.16

After solving the fraction we have 37/6 is our answer in decimal it is 6.16
