Question

Find the sum:
$2\frac{3}{4}+5\frac{5}{6}$

Answer 1

We have:


$$\begin{gathered} 2\frac{3}{4}+5\frac{5}{6} \\ =\frac{11}{4}+\frac{35}{6}\mathrm{L}.\mathrm{C}.\mathrm{M}.\mathrm{of}4\mathrm{and}6=(2\times 2\times 3)=12 \\ =\frac{\left(66+140\right)}{24}\left\{\left[24÷4=6,6\times 11=66\right]\mathrm{and}\left[24÷6=4,4\times 35=140\right]\right\} \\ =\frac{{\cancel{206}}^{103}}{{\cancel{24}}_{12}}=\frac{103}{12}=8\frac{7}{12} \end{gathered}$$
234+556
