A fraction is bigger or smaller depending on the numerator and denominator.

For example, 1/2 is larger than 1/4 because a half is larger than a quarter. This means that the larger the number underneath, the smaller the number.

But, this can change if the numerator (the number on top) is different than one.

For example, 3/4 is greater than 1/2 because three quarters is more than a half. (two quarters is equal to a half)

Romashka [77]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2 5/8+9 6/7 = 2+9+5/8 + 6/7 = 11 +5/8+6/7

$\frac{5}{8} +\frac{6}{7} =\frac{5*7}{8*7} +\frac{6*8}{7*8}\\\\=\frac{35}{56}+\frac{48}{56}=\frac{35+48}{56} \\\\=\frac{83}{56}\\ =1\frac{27}{56} \\2\frac{5}{8}+9\frac{6}{7}=11+1\frac{27}{56}\\=12\frac{27}{56}$
