Question

14/15 + 8/15 + 4/5 please help

Answer 1

Answer:

$=\frac{34}{15}$

$=2\frac{4}{15}$

Step-by-step explanation:

With unlike denominators find the Least Common Denominator (LCD)

LCD = 15

Multiplying numerators and denominators to get the LCD in all fraction denominators

$=\frac{14}{15} +\frac{8}{15} +\frac{4*3}{5*3}$

With like denominators we can operate on just the numerators

$=\frac{14+8+12}{15}$

$=\frac{34}{15}$

Simplifying the answer

$=\frac{34}{15} \\=2\frac{4}{15}$
