Respuesta :

A chef bought 76/6 pounds of carrots.
Then he bought 71/9 pounds of carrots as additional.
Let’s solve this. As you notice that the numerator is greater than the denominator.
it is called improper fraction. If we’re going to convert it to proper fraction, there will be a whole number on it.
=> 76 / 6 + 71/9, since it has different denominator. Find the LCD
=> 76/6 + 71/9 = 228/18 + 142/18
=> 228/18 + 142/18
=> 370/18 or 185/9
