Answer:
2 2/3 + 2 3/4
convert 2 2/3 to an improper fraction (denomenator times coefficient(the 2) + the numerator all over the denomenator)
3*2 = 6 + 2 = 8/3 ( 2 2/3 = 8/3 you just converted the fraction)
convert 2 3/4 the same way
4*2 = 8+3 = 11/4
now you have
8/3 + 11/4 you have to make the denomenators the same so 4 and 3 both go into 12
what times 3 = 12? 4*3 = 12
8/3 * 4/4 =-------->32/12 <-------(you multiply across)(4/4 = 1 so technically you arnt changing the value of the fraction)
what times 4 = 12? 3*4 = 12
11/4 * 3/3 = -------->33/12<-------- (you multiply across)(3/3 = 1 so technically you arnt changing the value of the fraction)
32/12+33/12 = (32+33)all over 12
65/12<theres your answer in feet
5 5/12 feet (12 inches is a foot so tecnically you are 5 inches in to the foot with that 5/12 soo...)
......5 feet and 5 inches
