Answer 1

Question :

what should be added to 7⅔ to get the result of 10 1/6?

Given Fractions:

7 ⅔ and 10 whole 1/6

To find:

The result that added to 7 ⅔ and get the result 10 whole 1/6.

Solve:

Let take the number x.

Now convert the mixed fractions into improper fractions.

7 ⅔= 23/3

10 whole 1/6 = 61/10

$\frac{23}{3} + x = \frac{61}{6}$

$x = \frac{61}{6} - \frac{23}{3}$

Take the LCM of Denominators because we have to do the denominators same.

LCM is 2×3=6

$\frac{61}{6} = \frac{61 \times 1}{6 \times 1} = \frac{61}{6}$

$\frac{23}{3} = \frac{23 \times 2}{3 \times 2} = \frac{46}{6}$

$x = \frac{61}{6} - \frac{46}{6}$

$x = \frac{15}{6}$

Hence, the required number is 15/6..
