1 Answer
Verified archiveTo add the mixed numbers (2 frac{1}{10}) and (1 frac{1}{10}), follow these steps:
1. Convert mixed numbers to improper fractions:
– (2 frac{1}{10} = frac{2 times 10 + 1}{10} = frac{21}{10})
– (1 frac{1}{10} = frac{1 times 10 + 1}{10} = frac{11}{10})
2. Add the improper fractions:
[
frac{21}{10} + frac{11}{10} = frac{21 + 11}{10} = frac{32}{10}
]
3. Simplify the result:
[
frac{32}{10} = frac{16}{5}
]
4. Convert back to a mixed number:
– Dividing 16 by 5 gives 3 with a remainder of 1, so:
[
frac{16}{5} = 3 frac{1}{5}
]
Thus, the final answer is (3 frac{1}{5}).
