Answer:

The answer is 25/24 or 1.041

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 5/6 and 5/8, you can't find the sum at that point. This means we will have to find a common denominator, which will be 24.

6 x 4 = 24 and 8 x 3 = 24

Doing this, you will have to multiply the numerator and denominator by the value the denominator needs to be multiplied by to get 24.

5/6 x 4/4 = 20/24 and 5/8 x 3/3 = 15/24

After getting these values, you can then add them.

20/24 + 15/24 = 25/24 or 1.041

How to write 85,000,011 in expanded form

I'm not sure if this is right because I haven't done expanded form in years. If it isn't, I'm sorry.

Turn 0.272727... into a fraction

kherson [118]

Answer:

0.272727… = 27/99

Step-by-step explanation:

(since 27 is the repeating part of the decimal and it contains 2 digits). We can reduce this fraction (a process that we'll talk more about in a future article) by noticing that we can divide both the numerator and denominator by 9 to get 0.272727… = 27/99 = 3/11.
