Question

Simplify by combining like terms 4s + 1/6s + 2 3/5s

Answer 1

The solution by combining like terms is 6.7667

Solution:

Given expression is:

`4s + (1)/(6)s + 2(3)/(5)s`

We have to simplify by combining the like terms

From given,

`4s + (1)/(6)s + 2(3)/(5)s`

Convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction

`4s + (1)/(6)s + (13)/(5)s`

Make the denominator same

`(4s * 30 )/(30) + (1s * 5)/(6 * 5) + (13s * 6)/(5 * 6)\\\\(120s)/(30) + (5s)/(30) + (78s)/(30)\\\\(203)/(30) = 6.7667`

Thus the solution is 6.7667
