Math Problem Statement

6 5/20 + 2 10/20 can you please solve these

Solution

The given expression is:

6520+210206 \frac{5}{20} + 2 \frac{10}{20}

First, we convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions:

6520=6×20+520=120+520=125206 \frac{5}{20} = \frac{6 \times 20 + 5}{20} = \frac{120 + 5}{20} = \frac{125}{20} 21020=2×20+1020=40+1020=50202 \frac{10}{20} = \frac{2 \times 20 + 10}{20} = \frac{40 + 10}{20} = \frac{50}{20}

Now, add the two fractions:

12520+5020=125+5020=17520\frac{125}{20} + \frac{50}{20} = \frac{125 + 50}{20} = \frac{175}{20}

Simplify the fraction:

17520=354=834\frac{175}{20} = \frac{35}{4} = 8 \frac{3}{4}

So, the result is:

8348 \frac{3}{4}
