Natalie and John are both saving coins in jars for a rainy day. Natalie currently has 1 1/8 jars of coins, and John has 9/14 of a jar of coins. If John gets all his coins to Natalie, how many jars of coins would she have all together?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Natalie will have [tex]1\frac{43}{56}[/tex] jars of coins all together after receiving John's coins.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Coins Natalie have = [tex]1\frac{1}{8}[/tex] jars of coins

Coins John have = [tex]\frac{9}{14}[/tex] jars of coins

When John will give all his coins to Natalie.

Total coins Natalie have = Her coins + John's coins

Total coins Natalie have = [tex]1\frac{1}{8}+\frac{9}{14}[/tex]

Total coins = [tex]\frac{9}{8}+\frac{9}{14}[/tex]

Total coins =[tex]\frac{63+36}{56}=\frac{99}{56}[/tex]

Total coins = [tex]1\frac{43}{56}[/tex]

Hence,

Natalie will have [tex]1\frac{43}{56}[/tex] jars of coins all together after receiving John's coins.
