Solve 22/5+31/5

$$2 \frac { 2 } { 5 } + 3 \frac { 1 } { 5 }$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{28}{5}=5.6$$

Solution Steps

Multiply 2 and 5 to get 10.

$$\frac{10+2}{5}+\frac{3\times 5+1}{5}$$

Add 10 and 2 to get 12.

$$\frac{12}{5}+\frac{3\times 5+1}{5}$$

Multiply 3 and 5 to get 15.

$$\frac{12}{5}+\frac{15+1}{5}$$

Add 15 and 1 to get 16.

$$\frac{12}{5}+\frac{16}{5}$$

Since \frac{12}{5} and \frac{16}{5} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{12+16}{5}$$

Add 12 and 16 to get 28.

$$\frac{28}{5}$$

Factor

$$\frac{2 ^ {2} \cdot 7}{5} = 5\frac{3}{5} = 5.6$$
