What is the mixed number answer 4 4/9 + 8 7/9

Sagot :

Hello there. To solve this question, we'll have to remember some properties about mixed numbers.

Given the mixed number a b/c, we can write it as and it is the same as

Therefore in the expression:

[tex]4\frac{4}{9}+8\frac{7}{9}[/tex]

We rewrite it as

[tex]4+\frac{4}{9}+8+\frac{7}{9}[/tex]

Adding the fractions, we have:

[tex]12+\frac{11}{9}=\frac{119}{9}[/tex]

And we have to write the answer in mixed fraction form, therefore we perform

[tex]\frac{119}{9}=\frac{117+2}{9}=13\frac{2}{9}[/tex]

This is the answer we're looking for.
