Answer:

Choice A

  • 9.5

Step-by-step explanation:

There's one way to solve this problem.


\displaystyle \cfrac{7}{2} + 6

Re-rewrite +6 as 6/2.


\sf = \cfrac{7 }{2} + \cfrac{6}{1}

Now solve for LCM of the two denominators, 2&1:

  • 2 * 1
  • 2

Then, solve.


= \cfrac{7 + 12}{2}


= \cfrac{19}{2} = \boxed{9.5}

Choice B.
