The quantity which you multiply to six that may not circulate over sixteen is two and it equals 12. there became into no quantity you may multiply to six that is equivalent to sixteen. So now 2 may be the completed quantity interior the mixed quantity. Now you subtract 12 from sixteen to have 4 left on the numerator and now the mixed quantity so far is two 4/6. The mixed quantity can nonetheless be simplified because of the fact the fraction 4/6 may be simplified because of the fact 4 and 6 are the two divisible by 2. the marvelous answer might now be 2 2/3. desire this enables you =D
