Question

6 3/8+5 1/3 what is the answer and how do you figure it out

Answer 1

Answer:

11 17/24

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this out we have to first find out the least common denominator for 8 and 3 which would be 24, now we have to switch both denominators to 24 but also have to switch the numerators to how much we multiplied the denomintors by and then add. so we multiplied 8 by 3 to get it to 24 so we multiply the numerator 3 by 3 as well. and for the second fraction we multiply the denominator 3 by 8 to get 24 so we multiply the nuerator by 8 as well. so...

6 3/8+ 5 1/3= 6 9/24 + 5 8/24 = 11 17/24
