In December it snowed 4 6/8. In January it snowed 3 2/3 inches. What is the combined amount for December and January?

Respuesta :

Answer:

4 6/8 + 3 2/3

first make the denominators the same

8 x 3 = 24  3 x 8 = 24

6/8 = 18/24   2/3 = 16/24

4 18/24 + 3 16/24 = 7 34/24

simplify:

34 / 24 = 1 5/12

your answer: 8 5/12
