Question

6 1/2 + 1 3/5 + 4 3/4​

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer for this question would be 85 and 17/20 or /20

Step-by-step explanation:

You must first find the LCD of these terms (everything that is separated by the addition signs).

The LCD is 20 because:

2 x 10 = 20

5 x 4 = 20

4 x 5=20

and there is no number lower than 20 that all of these numbers share in their multiplication table.

Now you must multiply every term by the number you used to make its denominator 20. Since 2 x 10 = 20, the new term would be:

60 10/20

Since 5 x 4 = 20, the new term would be:

4 12/20

Since 4 x 5 = 20, the new term would be:

20 15/20

Now we put all the whole numbers and numerators together to get:

60 + 4 + 20 = 84             -        whole numbers

10 + 12 + 15 = 37             -       numerators

84   37/20  =    85  17/20 or 1717/20
