1. 5 9/13 + 5 9/13 (1 point)
You have to add those two together, so your problem would look like this:
5 (your whole number)
9/13 (your fraction)
5 9/13 + 5 9/13 = 10 - the whole number
9/13 + 9/13 = 18/13 since the denominator always stays the same! (the bottom half) so, we have to make 18/13 a proper fraction since it's mixed right now. To do that, we need to subtract the numerator (the top) and the denominator to see how many times 13 can go into 18. So what you do is 18-13 and you get 5 left. It only went in once, so you would add to the whole number you had previously which was 10. You get 11, and since you had left your fraction would look like 5/13.
Therefore, your answer would be 11 5/13.
Hope this helped!
10 18/13
To add the fractions 5 9/13 and 5 9/13, we first need to convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions.
The first mixed number, 5 9/13, can be expressed as (5 * 13 + 9) / 13 = 74/13.
Similarly, the second mixed number, 5 9/13, can also be expressed as (5 * 13 + 9) / 13 = 74/13.
Now that both mixed numbers are converted into improper fractions, we can add them together:
(74/13) + (74/13) = 148/13.
Therefore, 5 9/13 + 5 9/13 is equal to 148/13.
To add mixed numbers like 5 9/13 + 5 9/13, you can follow these steps:
1. First, add the whole numbers together. In this case, 5 + 5 = 10.
2. Next, add the fractions together. To do this, you need to have a common denominator. In this case, the denominators are both 13, so you can add the numerators directly. 9 + 9 = 18.
3. If the sum of the fractions is equal to or greater than the denominator, you need to simplify it. In our case, 18 is already less than 13, so no simplification is needed.
4. Finally, combine the whole number from step 1 with the fraction from step 3. The result is 10 18/13.
Therefore, 5 9/13 + 5 9/13 = 10 18/13.
