Question

I need the answer for part a and b I don't understand it

Answer 1

To find Part A, take 3 2/3 and multiply that by 1 1/2 to get the amount of cherries. Then, you can simplify that answer if needed. For Part B, add 3 2/3 + x (number of pounds for red cherries) to get the answer to Part B. If you need help multiply for Part A, just let me know and I could help! :)

Answer 2

A. Change mix number to a fraction
3 2/3 X1 1/2
3times 3 plus 2
11/3x3/2
3 cancels so you have 11/2 =5 1/2 answer

B. 3 2/3 = 4/6
+ 5 1/2= 3/6

8 7/6 becomes 9 1/6
