Question

what is the sum if multiplicative inverse of 5/8 is added to the sum of 2/5 and 3/7 ?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Mutiplicative inverse of 5/8 = 8/5

sum = 2/5 + 3/7

lcm of 5 and 7 = 35

Therefore , 14/35 + 15/35

29/35

mutiplicative inverse of 5/8 + sum of 2/5 + 3/7

8/5 + 29/35

LCM of 5 and 35 = 35

Therefore , 56/35 + 29/35

85/35

simplest form of 85/35 = 13/7
