Question

you are adding 3 2/3+2 2/3 using fraction strips explain how you rename the fraction part of the problem

Answer 1

For this case we have the following expression:

`3 (2)/(3) + 2(2)/(3)`
We can Rewrite the expression, as the sum of fractions with the same denominator.
Rewriting the expression we have:

`(9+2)/(3) + (6+2)/(3)`

`(11)/(3) + (8)/(3)`
Then, adding both fractions we have:

`(11+8)/(3) = (19)/(3)`
Answer:
The result of the given expression is:

`(19)/(3)`

Answer 2

We have to add 3 2/3 + 2 2/3 using fraction strips. 3 2/3 and 2 2/3 are the mixed numbers. The mixed numbers consists of a whole number and a fraction. If we want to add those numbers we shoukld change them into improper fractions: 3 2/3 = ( 3 * 3 + 2 ) / 3 = 11 / 3; 2 2/3 = ( 2 * 3 + 2 ) / 2 = 8 / 3. Finally: 11 / 3 + 8 / 3 = ( 11 + 8 ) / 3 = 20 / 3 = 6 2/3. Answer: You reneme it turning them into improper fractions.
