Question

compute and Express the result as a mixed fraction 2 2/3+ 3 1/2​

Answer 1

Answer:

$6\frac{1}{6}$ is the required answer in mixed fraction.

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:

Given that, $2\frac{2}{3} + 3\frac{1}{2}$

• A mixed fraction is represented by both its quotient and remainder.

• A mixed fraction is, for instance, $2\frac{2}{3}$, where 2 is the quotient and 1 is the remainder. An amalgam of a whole number and a legal fraction is a mixed fraction.

Step 1:

We have, $2\frac{2}{3} + 3\frac{1}{2}$

⇒ $2\frac{2}{3} + 3\frac{1}{2}$ = $\frac{6+2}{3} + \frac{6+1}{2}$

⇒ $\frac{8}{3} + \frac{7}{2}$

Now, we find out the lcm of 2 and 3.

• LCM - The smallest positive integer that is divisible by both a and b is known as the least common multiple, lowest common multiple, or smallest common multiple of two numbers a and b in mathematics and number theory.

LCM of 2 and 3 is 6

⇒ $\frac{8}{3} + \frac{7}{2}$ = $\frac{16 + 21}{6} = \frac{37}{6}$

Now, a mixed fraction of $\frac{37}{6}$ is   $6\frac{1}{6}$

Final answer:

Hence, $6\frac{1}{6}$ is the required answer in mixed fraction.
