Question

The sum of 35 and one fifth part of itself is added to the sum of one seventh of 11 and 8​

Answer 1

Answer:

313/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are interested in turning the wordings of the statement to numeric values.

We take it one at a time.

Sum of 35 and 1/5(35) = 35 + 7 = 42

This is added to 1/7(11 + 8)

= 1/7(19) = 19/7

So we have;

42 + 19/7 = (294 + 19)/7 = 313/7
