Math Problem Statement

What is the total length in ft on 3, 7/8 and 2,3l8

Solution

It seems like you're asking to find the total length in feet for the values 33, 7/87/8, and 2,3/182, 3/18. However, the third value "2, 3l8" looks unclear. I assume it's a mixed number, possibly 23182\frac{3}{18}. If that's correct, I'll proceed with that interpretation.

Here are the steps to calculate the total:

  1. Convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions, if needed.
  2. Add them together.
  3. Simplify the sum.

Let's go step by step.

  1. The first value is simply 3.
  2. The second value 7/87/8 is already a fraction.
  3. If 23182\frac{3}{18} is correct, we convert it to an improper fraction: 2318=2+318=3618+318=39182\frac{3}{18} = 2 + \frac{3}{18} = \frac{36}{18} + \frac{3}{18} = \frac{39}{18}

Now, let's add them all together: 3+78+39183 + \frac{7}{8} + \frac{39}{18} We'll find a common denominator for these fractions, then sum them.

I'll calculate it now.The total length in feet, when adding 33, 78\frac{7}{8}, and 23182\frac{3}{18}, is:

14524 feet6.04 feet.\frac{145}{24} \text{ feet} \approx 6.04 \text{ feet}.
