Answer 1

1. 10 6/7 2. 8/15

Explanation:

1. 6 1/42 + 4 5/6

• First, let's combine the whole numbers. 6 + 4 = 10

• Now we are left with 1/42 + 5/6.

• To add or subtract, the dominators need to be the same. We need to find the least common multiple which here is 42.

1/42 + 5/6(7)

1/42 + 35/42

= 36/42

= 6/7

• All we have to do is combine both numbers.

10 6/7

2. 13/15 - 1/3(5)

13/15 - 5/15

8/15
