Question
Add: `5 1/5 + 2 1/7`
Sum
Solution
`5 1/5 + 2 1/7`
= `(5 xx 5 + 1)/5 + (2 xx 7 + 1)/7`
= `(26)/5 + (15)/7`
= `(26 xx 7)/(5 xx 7) + (15 xx 5)/(7 xx 5)`
= `(182)/(35) + (75)/(35)`
= `(182 + 75)/(35)`
= `(257)/(35)`
= `(245 + 12)/35`
= `(245)/(35) + (12)/(35)`
= `7 + (12)/(35)`
= `7 (12)/(35)`.
