Sanaya has to submit a three page book report at the end of this week on Monday she completed 5/6 of a page of the report on Tuesday. She completed 2/7 pages how many pages total has in the completed of her book report
To find out the total number of pages that Sanaya has completed for her book report, we need to add up the fractions that she completed on Monday and Tuesday.
On Monday, she completed 5/6 of a page.
On Tuesday, she completed 2/7 of a page.
To add these fractions, we need to find a common denominator. The least common denominator of 6 and 7 is 42.
So, let's convert 5/6 to have a denominator of 42:
5/6 = (5/6) * (7/7) = 35/42.
And let's convert 2/7 to have a denominator of 42:
2/7 = (2/7) * (6/6) = 12/42.
Now, we can add the fractions:
35/42 + 12/42 = 47/42.
Since 47/42 is an improper fraction, we can simplify it to a mixed number:
47/42 = 1 5/42.
Therefore, Sanaya has completed a total of 1 and 5/42 pages for her book report.
