Solve 84/6+92/3

$$8 \frac { 4 } { 6 } + 9 \frac { 2 } { 3 }$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{55}{3}\approx 18.333333333$$

Solution Steps

Multiply 8 and 6 to get 48.

$$\frac{48+4}{6}+\frac{9\times 3+2}{3}$$

Add 48 and 4 to get 52.

$$\frac{52}{6}+\frac{9\times 3+2}{3}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{52}{6} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

$$\frac{26}{3}+\frac{9\times 3+2}{3}$$

Multiply 9 and 3 to get 27.

$$\frac{26}{3}+\frac{27+2}{3}$$

Add 27 and 2 to get 29.

$$\frac{26}{3}+\frac{29}{3}$$

Since \frac{26}{3} and \frac{29}{3} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{26+29}{3}$$

Add 26 and 29 to get 55.

$$\frac{55}{3}$$

Factor

$$\frac{5 \cdot 11}{3} = 18\frac{1}{3} = 18.333333333333332$$
