Answer:
7 1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
you have to turn the mixed number into an improper fraction first before adding. so by doing so you have to multiply the whole number in by the denominator (bottom number in fraction) then finaly add the numerator (the top number in fraction) also your denomiantor must be the same as in the mixed fraction and in the improper fraction. So now you have an improper fraction of 35/6 + 8/3 (NOTICE HOW I HAVE THE SAME DENOMINATORS).
Now find a common denominator.
35/6 +8/3
6 can go into 6 and 3 can go into 6 so the new denominator for both fractions is 6!!
35/6 +8/6= 43/6
now we simply ADD the numerators together an get 43/6
the last step is to turn it back into a mixed fraction.
6 goes into 43 7 times with one left over,
so it is 7 1/6
we put the left over number for the numerator, the same denominator as before for the denominator, and the 7 for the whole number because that is the biggest number that can go into 43.
Hoped this helped.
