Answer 2

Answer:

A) 5 9/14

B) 7 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Question A asks what is 4 1/7 + 1 1/2

First turn the problem into improper fraction for it to be easier to calculate.

29/7 + 3/2

Now we have to find the denominator(bottom number)

We have 7 and 2 as our denominators. So we need to find out the lcm(least common factor)

For 7 and 2 the lcm is 14

So far we have:

29/7 + 3/2 = ?/14 + ?/14 = ?

Now we need to find the numerator(The top number). That fills in the ? over the two 14's.

To find the numerator we need to mutiply.

29/7 + 3/2 = ?/14 + ?/14 = ?

7 × ? = 14 the answer is 2 so then we multiply the top also with 2. So 29 × 2 = 58.

29/7 + 3/2 = 58/14 + ?/14 = ?

Now we have figured out one of the ?

We do the same thing for the other one

2 × ? = 14 answer is 7 so we also multiply the top with 7. 3 × 7 = 21.

29/7 + 3/2 = 58/14 + 21/14 = ?

Now we have to solve this:

58/14 + 21/14 = ?

The denominator is 14 because both of them are 14.

The top we need to add together so 58+21= 79

Now our answer is:

79/14

If we simplify it(by turning into improper fraction):

5 9/14

B) question is 4 1/2 ÷ 3/5

First we turn it into inproper fraction

9/2 ÷ 3/5

Since it is divsion we have to flip the second fraction which is 3/5 into 5/3, and turn the ÷ symbol into ×

9/2 × 5/3

Now we multiply across

9×5 = 45

2×3 = 6

answer: 45/6

Now if we simplify:

7 1/2

Hope that helped! that was long.. I would apreciate a brainlist if you could, thx!
