65 3/16 64 1/16 63 66 65 1/8 65 3/4 65 3/4 65 34 65 9/16 64 7/8 67 1/16 Add all of these together

Solution

To add these numbers, we first need to deal with them as mixed numbers and fractions. Let's break it down:

The numbers are:

  1. 6531665 \frac{3}{16}
  2. 6411664 \frac{1}{16}
  3. 6363
  4. 6666
  5. 651865 \frac{1}{8}
  6. 653465 \frac{3}{4}
  7. 653465 \frac{3}{4}
  8. 65341665 \frac{34}{16} (this seems unusual, but we'll convert 3416\frac{34}{16} to 2216=2182 \frac{2}{16} = 2 \frac{1}{8})
  9. 6591665 \frac{9}{16}
  10. 647864 \frac{7}{8}
  11. 6711667 \frac{1}{16}

Step-by-step:

  1. Convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions where possible.
  2. Add the whole numbers and fractions separately.

Let's start by adding the whole numbers: 65+64+63+66+65+65+65+65+64+67=61565 + 64 + 63 + 66 + 65 + 65 + 65 + 65 + 64 + 67 = 615

Now let's add the fractions:

  1. 316+116+0+0+18+34+34+18+916+78+116\frac{3}{16} + \frac{1}{16} + 0 + 0 + \frac{1}{8} + \frac{3}{4} + \frac{3}{4} + \frac{1}{8} + \frac{9}{16} + \frac{7}{8} + \frac{1}{16}

Let's combine the fractions step by step:

  • First, convert everything to 16ths:

    • 18=216\frac{1}{8} = \frac{2}{16}
    • 34=1216\frac{3}{4} = \frac{12}{16}
    • 78=1416\frac{7}{8} = \frac{14}{16}
  • Now, add all the fractions: 316+116+0+0+216+1216+1216+216+916+1416+116\frac{3}{16} + \frac{1}{16} + 0 + 0 + \frac{2}{16} + \frac{12}{16} + \frac{12}{16} + \frac{2}{16} + \frac{9}{16} + \frac{14}{16} + \frac{1}{16} =3+1+2+12+12+2+9+14+116=5616=3816=312= \frac{3+1+2+12+12+2+9+14+1}{16} = \frac{56}{16} = 3 \frac{8}{16} = 3 \frac{1}{2}

Now, combining the whole numbers and the fraction:

  • Whole numbers: 615
  • Fractions: 3123 \frac{1}{2}

So, the total sum is: 615+312=61812615 + 3 \frac{1}{2} = 618 \frac{1}{2}

Thus, the sum of all the numbers is 618 1/2.


Would you like any further breakdown or details on the process? Here are some related questions for you:

  1. How do you add mixed fractions with different denominators?
  2. Can you convert a fraction to a decimal, and why would you want to?
  3. How do you simplify fractions, like when you get 5616\frac{56}{16}?
  4. What is the importance of finding a common denominator when adding fractions?
  5. How can you check your work when adding mixed numbers?

Tip: When dealing with mixed numbers, always try to convert them to improper fractions first if you are unfamiliar with directly adding them.
