$$14 \frac { 3 } { 15 } + 3 \frac { 4 } { 5 }$$

Evaluate

$$18$$

Solution Steps

Multiply 14 and 15 to get 210.

$$\frac{210+3}{15}+\frac{3\times 5+4}{5}$$

Add 210 and 3 to get 213.

$$\frac{213}{15}+\frac{3\times 5+4}{5}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{213}{15} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 3.

$$\frac{71}{5}+\frac{3\times 5+4}{5}$$

Multiply 3 and 5 to get 15.

$$\frac{71}{5}+\frac{15+4}{5}$$

Add 15 and 4 to get 19.

$$\frac{71}{5}+\frac{19}{5}$$

Since \frac{71}{5} and \frac{19}{5} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{71+19}{5}$$

Add 71 and 19 to get 90.

$$\frac{90}{5}$$

Divide 90 by 5 to get 18.

$$18$$

Factor
