Answer 2

Hii friend,

Let X should be added to 5/8 to get 101/72

Therefore,

=> 5/8 + X = 101/72

=>5 + 8X ÷ 8 = 101/72

=>72(5+8X) = 101 × 8

=> 360 + 576X = 808

=> 576X = 808 - 360

=> 576X = 448

=> X = 448/576

=>X = 7/9

Hence,

7/9 should be added to 5/8 to make it 101/72

HOPE IT WILL HELP YOU..... :-)
