Question

Simplify by combining like terms 4s + 1/6s + 2 3/5s

Answer 1

The solution by combining like terms is 6.7667

Solution:

Given expression is:

$4s + \frac{1}{6}s + 2\frac{3}{5}s$

We have to simplify by combining the like terms

From given,

$4s + \frac{1}{6}s + 2\frac{3}{5}s$

Convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction

$4s + \frac{1}{6}s + \frac{13}{5}s$

Make the denominator same

$\frac{4s \times 30 }{30} + \frac{1s \times 5}{6 \times 5} + \frac{13s \times 6}{5 \times 6}\\\\\frac{120s}{30} + \frac{5s}{30} + \frac{78s}{30}\\\\\frac{203}{30} = 6.7667$

Thus the solution is 6.7667
