First, add the integers to get 3. Then, add 2/3 and 3/5 by converting them into fifteenths, for a total of 19/15, or 1 4/15. Add these together to get 4 4/15 miles.
The total distance Shannon walked during those 2 days is [tex]4\frac{4}{15}[/tex] miles .
What is fraction?
A number expressed as a quotient, in which a numerator is divided by a denominator. In a simple fraction, both are integers. A complex fraction has a fraction in the numerator or denominator. In a proper fraction, the numerator is less than the denominator.
According to the question
Shannon walked on Wednesday in fraction = [tex]1\frac{2}{3}[/tex] miles
= [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex] miles
Shannon walked on Thursday in fraction = [tex]2 \frac{3}{5}[/tex] miles
= [tex]\frac{13}{5}[/tex] miles
The total distance, in miles covered by Shannon during those 2 days
= Shannon walked on Wednesday + Shannon walked on Thursday
= [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{13}{5}[/tex]
Taking lcm of denominator 3 and 5 = 15
= [tex]\frac{25+39}{15}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{64}{15}[/tex] miles
= [tex]4\frac{4}{15}[/tex] miles
Hence, The total distance Shannon walked during those 2 days is [tex]4\frac{4}{15}[/tex] miles .
