You are not dumb. No one is dumb. Einstein failed math in high school.
Anna is x years old.
Jane is y years younger.
This means the Jane is x - y years old.
In three years, Anna will be x + 3 years old.
In three years, Jane will be (x - y) + 3 years old.
Let S = the sum of their ages in 3 years.
S = x + 3 + (x - y) + 3
S = 2x + 6 - y
Got it?
Answer:
41/333
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>To find this answer, the second value needs to be converted into an improper fraction. (-1 1/6) becomes (-7/6) when properly converted. Then, 5/6 + (-7/6) becomes the same as (5/6) - (7/6). Since both have common denominators, the numerators can simply be subtracted: (5-7) = -2. This leaves a sum of (-2/6), which can be reduced to (-1/3).</span>
