Question

what number should be added to 5/12 to get 2whole number 3/8​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be x

$\frac{5}{12} + x = (2 \times \frac{3}{8}$

x=19/8-5/12

x=19*3/8*3-5*2/12*2

x=57/24-10/24

x=47/24

Hope it helps

Answer 2

2 whole 3/8 - 5/12

19/8+5/12

LCM of 8,12 is 24

19×3/8×3=57/24

5×2/12×2=10/24

=57/24-10/24

=47/24
