Answer:
[tex]16\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey there !!!!
there are many ways to solve this problem. but the most common way is to add the the whole number than add the fraction part:
if we solve it :
Rewriting our equation with parts separated
[tex]9+\frac{3}{10} + 7+\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
Solving the whole number parts
9+7=16
Solving the fraction parts
[tex]\frac{3}{10}+\frac{1}{5} = ?[/tex]
Find the LCD of [tex]\frac{3}{10}[/tex] and [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] and rewrite to solve with the equivalent fractions.
LCD = 10
[tex]\frac{3}{10}+\frac{2}{10}=\frac{5}{10}[/tex]
Reducing the fraction part, [tex]\frac{5}{10}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{5}{10}=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Combining the whole and fraction parts
[tex]16+\frac{1}{2} = 16\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
have a wonderfulday
