Answer 1

PLEASE MARK BRAINLIEST!

Answer:

To estimate the quotient, make the fractions "like" fractions. To do this, you need to make the fractions have the same denominator, and turn them into improper fractions.

Step-by-step explanation:

$27\frac{2}{3} = 27 \frac{20}{30}$

$3\frac{9}{10} = 3\frac{27}{30}$

Now the denominators are the same --> they are "like" fractions.

$27\frac{20}{30} + 3\frac{27}{30} = ?$

$27\frac{20}{30} + 3\frac{27}{30} = (27 + 3) + (\frac{20}{30} + \frac{27}{30})$

$27\frac{20}{30} + 3\frac{27}{30} = (30) + (\frac{47}{30})$

$27\frac{20}{30} + 3\frac{27}{30} = (30) + (1 \frac{17}{30})$

$27\frac{20}{30} + 3\frac{27}{30} = 31 \frac{17}{30}$

Your answer is $31\frac{17}{30}$.

I hope this helps!
