So first we have to find a common denominator, in this case it is simple because 18 works. So now we have to make 1/9 into ?/18, to do this we multiply 1/9 by 2, so now we have 2/18 + 2/3 + 5/18. To make 2/3 into ?/18 we have to multiply by 6, so now we have 2/18 + 12/18 + 5/18. Now you add all the numerators (top numbers) together and we get 19/18, which is the same as 1  1/18

ANSWER: 19/18 or 1  1/18. 

Feel free to ask any questions about my explanation if you need it(:

The sum of the fractions \dfrac{1}{9},\dfrac{2}{3},\dfrac{5}{{18}} is \boxed{\frac{{{\mathbf{19}}}}{{{\mathbf{18}}}}}.

Further explanation:  

Given:

The given fractions are \dfrac{1}{9},\dfrac{2}{3},\dfrac{5}{{18}}.

Step by step explanation:

Step 1:

First we make the denominator same of the given fraction.

The equivalent fraction of \dfrac{1}{9} can be calculated as,

\dfrac{{1 \times 2}}{{9 \times 2}} = \dfrac{2}{{18}}  

The equivalent fraction of \dfrac{2}{3} can be calculated as,

\dfrac{{2 \times 3}}{{3 \times 3}} = \dfrac{6}{9}  

The equivalent fraction of \dfrac{5}{{18}} can be calculated as,

\dfrac{{5 \times 1}}{{18 \times 1}} = \dfrac{5}{{18}}  

Step 2:

We know the sum of the given fractions and the sum of the equivalent fractions would be same.

Now find the sum of the equivalent fraction to find the sum of the given fractions \dfrac{1}{9},\dfrac{2}{3},\dfrac{5}{{18}} as,

\begin{aligned}\frac{2}{{18}} + \frac{{12}}{{18}} + \frac{5}{{18}} &= \frac{{2 + 12 + 5}}{{18}} \\&= \frac{{19}}{{18}} \\\end{aligned}    

Therefore, the sum of the fractions \dfrac{1}{9},\dfrac{2}{3},\dfrac{5}{{18}} is \dfrac{{19}}{{18}}.

A diesel train traveled to the repair yards and
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

B.  16 hrs

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance = rate × time

The best way to do this is to make a table with the info.  We are concerned with the trip There and the Return trip.  Set it up accordingly:

                    d     =     r     ×     t

There    

Return

The train made a trip from A to B and then back to A again, so the distances are both the same.  We don't know what the distance is, but it doesn't matter.  Just go with it for now.  It'll be important later.

               d     =     r     ×     t

There      d    

Return     d

We are also told the rates.  There is 70 km/hr and return is 80 km/hr

               d     =     r     ×     t

There      d     =    70

Return     d     =    80

All that's left is the time column now.  We don't know how long it took to get there or back, but if it took 2 hours longer to get There than on the Return, the Return trip took t and the There trip took t + 2:

                      d     =     r     ×     t

There             d     =    70   ×    t+2

Return            d     =    80   ×     t

The distances, remember, are the same for both trips, so that means that by the transitive property of equality, their equations can be set equal to each other:

70(t + 2) = 80t

70t + 140 = 80t

140 = 10t

14 = t

That t represents the Return trip's time.  Add 2 hours to it since the There trip's time is t+2.  So 14 + 2 = 16.  

B.  16 hours
