Answer:

Sum = 15 8/15, Difference = 1 2/15

Step-by-step explanation:

8⅓, 71/5

A. Sum

8⅓ + 7 1/5

Convert to improper fraction

25/3 + 36/5

Find the LCM of 3 and 5. The result is 15. Divide 15 by the denominator of each fraction and multiply the result obtained with the numerator. The result is shown below:

[(25×5) + (36×3)] / 15

[125 + 108] / 15

233 / 15

Convert to mixed fraction

15 8/15

B. Difference

8⅓ – 7 1/5

Convert to improper fraction

25/3 – 36/5

Find the LCM of 3 and 5. The result is 15. Divide 15 by the denominator of each fraction and multiply the result obtained with the numerator. The result is shown below:

[(25×5) – (36×3)] / 15

[125 – 108] / 15

17 / 15

Convert to mixed fraction

1 2/15

SUMMARY:

Sum = 15 8/15, Difference = 1 2/15
