SOMEONE please help me with this.
“Jessie hiked 5 1/2 miles on Saturday, 6 3/4 miles on Sunday, and 2 1/3 miles on Monday. How many miles did Jessie hike altogether?
You have to start with finding the greatest common denominator(GCD) GCD is 12 5 and 1/2 is 5 and 6/12 6 and 3/4 is 6 and 9/12 2 and 1/3 is 2 and 4/12 So you add up your fractions... 6+9+4=19 So you have the improper fraction of 19/12 Now turn 19/12 into a mixed number and you have 1 and 7/12 Then add your full miles from before 5+6+2=13 For your altogether answer you add 1 7/12 and 13 1 7/12+13=14 7/12 miles altogether.
