Find the solution:


  • 2·

Answer:


(17)/(6) or
2(5)/(6)

Explanation:

1.Find the Least Common Denominator (LCD)

LCD = 6

2.Make the denominators the same as the LCD.


2+(1*3)/(2*3) + (1*2)/(3*2)

3.Simplify. Denominators are now the same


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

4. Join the denominators


2+(3+2)/(6)

5.Simplify


2(5)/(6) =
(17)/(6)
