Question
Add the difference between `1 1/3` and `3 1/6` and the difference between `4 1/6` and `2 1/3`
Advertisements
Solution
We have to find `(3 1/6 - 1 1/3) + (4 1/6 - 2 1/3)`
= `(19/6 - 4/3) + (25/6 - 7/3) ...[∵ 3 1/6 > 1 1/3 and 4 1/6 > 2 1/3]`
= `(19/6 - 8/6) + (25/6 - 14/6)`
= `11/6 + 11/6`
3
`6")"overline22`
18
4
= `22/6`
= `3 4/6`
= `3 2/3`
