Question

Emily walked 5 2/6 miles in the morning and another 3 3/5 miles in the afternoon What was the total distance she walked?​

Answer 1

The correct answer would be 8 14/15 miles.

Explanation:

You have to get the fractions 5 2/6 and 3 3/5 to a common denominator (30) getting you the fractions 10/30 and 18/30. 10/30+18/30 is 28/30 which can simplify to 14/15. 5+3 = 8 getting you the answer of 8 14/15
