Question

16. Simplest from of 38-5/16+13 24
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

i) 5/8 + 2/8

= (5 + 2)/8

= 7/8

(ii) 11/5 – 7/15

= (11 – 7)/15

= 4/15

(iii) 16/5 – 3/5 + 2/5 – 9/5

= (16 – 3 + 2 - 9)/5

= (18 – 12)/5

= 6/5

(iv) 4²/₃ + 1/3 – 4¹/₃

= (4 × 3 + 2)/3 + 1/3 – (4× 3 + 1)/3

= 14/3 + 1/3 – 13/3

= (14 + 1 - 13)/3

= (15 - 13)/3

= 2/3
