I need help with this
find the sum or difference. write the answer in simplest form.
question is
3 5/6 -(-2/3)
If you help me i'll take you out and we can get some food and go see the movie IT!
3 5/6 -(-2/3)
3 5/6 + 4/6 = 3 9/6 = 4 3/6 = 4 1/2
I'll pass on the food and a movie. 600 miles is too far for either of us.
LOL!
You're welcome.
LOL thanks for the help and the offer still stands LMK LOL
Sure, I'd be happy to help you with this question! Let's find the sum or difference and write the answer in simplest form.
To start, we need to calculate the difference between 3 5/6 and -2/3.
Step 1: Convert mixed number to an improper fraction:
3 5/6 = (3 * 6 + 5)/6 = 23/6
Step 2: Simplify the expression by adding the opposite of -2/3, which is +2/3:
23/6 + 2/3
Step 3: Find a common denominator for the fractions. In this case, the LCM (Least Common Multiple) of 6 and 3 is 6.
Step 4: Convert both fractions to have the common denominator of 6:
(23/6) * (2/2) + (2/3) * (2/2) = 46/12 + 4/12
Step 5: Add the fractions:
46/12 + 4/12 = (46 + 4)/12 = 50/12
Step 6: Simplify the fraction to its simplest form. In this case, we can divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor which is 2:
50/12 = (25 * 2)/(6 * 2) = 25/6
So, 3 5/6 - (-2/3) is equal to 25/6 in simplest form.
