Solve {r}{1014/15}{+127/15}

$$\left. \begin{array} { r } { 10 \frac { 14 } { 15 } } \\ { + 12 \frac { 7 } { 15 } } \end{array} \right.$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{117}{5}=23.4$$

Solution Steps

Multiply 10 and 15 to get 150.

$$\frac{150+14}{15}+\frac{12\times 15+7}{15}$$

Add 150 and 14 to get 164.

$$\frac{164}{15}+\frac{12\times 15+7}{15}$$

Multiply 12 and 15 to get 180.

$$\frac{164}{15}+\frac{180+7}{15}$$

Add 180 and 7 to get 187.

$$\frac{164}{15}+\frac{187}{15}$$

Since \frac{164}{15} and \frac{187}{15} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{164+187}{15}$$

Add 164 and 187 to get 351.

$$\frac{351}{15}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{351}{15} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 3.

$$\frac{117}{5}$$

Factor

$$\frac{3 ^ {2} \cdot 13}{5} = 23\frac{2}{5} = 23.4$$
