Answer:
1.2 + 2.3
Step-by-step explanation:
Convert to a mixed number:
239/42
Divide 239 by 42:
4 | 2 | 2 | 3 | 9
42 goes into 239 at most 5 times:
| | | | 5
4 | 2 | 2 | 3 | 9
| - | 2 | 1 | 0
| | | 2 | 9
Read off the results. The quotient is the number at the top and the remainder is the number at the bottom:
| | | | 5 | (quotient)
4 | 2 | 2 | 3 | 9 |
| - | 2 | 1 | 0 |
| | | 2 | 9 | (remainder)
The quotient of 239/42 is 5 with remainder 29, so:
Answer: 5 29/42
