7 times as much as the sum of 1/3 and 4/5 = to what

Sagot :

Answer:

First of all, you add 1/3 and 4/5, so you get:

To add 2 fractions, they need to have the same denominator. Since 3 and 5 don't have a common factor, so you multiply 1/3 by 5, and 4/5 by 3, so you get:

Now, the two fractions got the same denominator, and you can add them by adding the numerators over the same denominator. (You don't add denominators in addition) so you get:

That's the sum of 1/3 + 4/5.

Now, they want the sum of the 2 fractions 7 times. So you multiply 17/15 by 7. And as you know, 7 = 7/1. So you get:

In multiplication no need to have the same denominator. You multiply nominators by nominators and denominators by denominators. So you get:

Since 119 and 15 don't have a common factor, they can't be simplified.

So, the answer is 119/15.
