Adding fractions is easy when you get the rules...

add the numerator which is the top, and keep the denominator which is the bottom.
10/12 +6/12 = 16/12
change that into a mixed number 
16/12 = 1 4/12 which is simplified to 1 1/3

Can someone help me really please
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

26

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the missing number

8\frac{11}{15} = 7\frac{x}{15}

Convert both fractions to improper fractions

\frac{131}{15} = \frac{105 + x}{15}

Cross multiply

15(105 + x) = 15(131)

1,575 + 15x = 1,965

Subtract both sides by 1,575

15x = 1,965 - 1,575

15x = 390

Divide both sides by 15

x = \frac{390}{15}

x = 26
