Question

Five eighths plus eleven twelves

Answer 1

$five \ eighths \to \frac{5}{8} \\\\ eleven \ twelves \to \frac{11}{12} \\\\ \frac{5}{8}^{(3}+\frac{11}{12}^{(2}= \\\\ =\frac{15}{24}+\frac{22}{24}= \\\\ =\boxed{\boxed{\frac{37}{24}}}$

Answer 2

5/8 + 11/12
make the denominator the same
48 divided by 12 = 4
48 divided by 8 = 6
5 x 6 = 30
11 x 4 = 44
30/48 + 44/48
30 + 44 = 74
74 - 48 = 26
So the answer is 1 and 26/48 in its proper form.
Simplified, it would be 1 and 13/24. Mixed = 37/24 since you'll be adding 24.
