Solve 61/2+32/4=

$$6 \frac { 1 } { 2 } + 3 \frac { 2 } { 4 } =$$

Evaluate

$$10$$

Solution Steps

Multiply 6 and 2 to get 12.

$$\frac{12+1}{2}+\frac{3\times 4+2}{4}$$

Add 12 and 1 to get 13.

$$\frac{13}{2}+\frac{3\times 4+2}{4}$$

Multiply 3 and 4 to get 12.

$$\frac{13}{2}+\frac{12+2}{4}$$

Add 12 and 2 to get 14.

$$\frac{13}{2}+\frac{14}{4}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{14}{4} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

$$\frac{13}{2}+\frac{7}{2}$$

Since \frac{13}{2} and \frac{7}{2} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{13+7}{2}$$

Add 13 and 7 to get 20.

$$\frac{20}{2}$$

Divide 20 by 2 to get 10.

$$10$$

Factor

$$2\times 5$$
