If the denominators are not the same, then you have to use equivalent fractions which do have a common denominator . To do this, you need to find the least common multiple (LCM) of the two denominators. To add fractions with unlike denominators, rename the fractions with a common denominator. Then add and simplify.

For example:
1/2 + 1/3
We need to find something called the least common denominator (LCD)... It's really just the LCM of our denominators, 2 and 3.
The LCM of 2 and 3 is 6. So, our LCD 6.
We need to make this our new denominator...
Change the 1/2:
1 x 3 over 2 x 3 = 3/6
Change the 1/3:
1/2 + 1/3 = 3/6 + 2/6
Now we can do it!
(3+2)/6 = 5/6
P = P₀ (1 + r)ⁿ
= 1.17(1 + 0.09)⁵
= 1.17(1.09)⁵
= 1.17(1.5386)
= 1.80
Answer: $1.80
Note: If you don't know the formula, you could calculate each year.
Year 0: $1.17
Year 1: $1.17 + $1.17(0.09) = $1.2753
Year 2: $1.28 + $1.28(0.09) = $1.3948
Year 3: $1.39 + $1.39(0.09) = $1.5155
Year 4: $1.51 + $1.51(0.09) = $1.6464
Year 5: $1.65 + $1.65(0.09) = $1.7982 <em>which rounds up to $1.80</em>
Cm is a centimeter, which is one-hundredth of a meter. Or rather, one hundred centimeters is equal to one meter.
To convert cm to meters
(62.5 cm) * (1 meter/100 cm) = .625 meters
