Answer:

The choice C .

[tex]1 \frac{17}{60} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]q - \frac{6}{5} = \frac{1}{12} \\ \\ q = \frac{1}{12} + \frac{6}{5} \\ \\ q= \frac{5}{60} + \frac{72}{60} = \frac{77}{60} = 1 \frac{17}{60} [/tex]

Answer:

q = 1 [tex]\frac{17}{60}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

q - [tex]\frac{6}{5} = \frac{1}{12}[/tex]

Add [tex]\frac{6}{5}[/tex]  to both sides.

q = [tex]\frac{1}{12} + \frac{6}{5}[/tex]

The least common multiple of 12 and 5 is 60. Convert [tex]\frac{1}{12}[/tex] and [tex]\frac{6}{5}[/tex] to fractions with denominator 60.

q = [tex]\frac{5}{60} + \frac{72}{60}[/tex]

Since [tex]\frac{5}{60}[/tex] and [tex]\frac{72}{60}[/tex]  have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

q = [tex]\frac{5 + 72}{60}[/tex]

Add 5 and 72 to get 77.

q = [tex]\frac{77}{60}[/tex]

Add the 1 and you get:

1 [tex]\frac{77}{60}[/tex]

Hope it helps and have a great day! =D
