First u have to move the -5/2 to the other side. Sou add 5/2 to -5/2, which cancels out. Then ur stuck with x=9+5/2. Next u solve. 9+2.5=11.5. so ur answer is 11.5

So all you have to do is take the first numbers of each multiple and multiply them.

Now you just add the 4 zeros to your answer.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First convert them into improper fractions: $6\frac{1}{3} =\frac{19}{3}$ and $9\frac{1}{2} =\frac{19}{2}$ . Now we add: $\frac{19}{2}+\frac{19}{3}=\frac{95}{6}$ or $15\frac{5}{6}$ .
