7 1/5:
Multiply the denominator and the whole number: 7*5 = 35 and then add the numerator: 35+1= 36/5. Then, do this for the following fraction, the improper fraction value of 2 2/15 is 32/15.
Now we need 36/5 & 32/15 to have common denominators so that we can simplify it a little less complicated.

For Instance,

36/5*3= 108/15

Now we divide, (108/15)/(32/15)
108/32= 3.375 = 3 3/8

Answer is 3 3/8.

Hope this was easy to understand!

How do you find the hypotenuse of a right triangle when you have 2 angles (1 being the 90 degrees since it is a right triangle)
stiks02 [169]
Find the length of the hypotenuse by using either "sine" or "cosine". 

Sine= Length of opposite side/ Hypotenuse

Cosine= Length of adjacent side/ Hypotenuse

In order to use one of these, it depends on which angle they give you other than 90 degrees. 

Hope this helps!
