math help please?

Question

5 1/3 4 2/3=?

Answer 1

Change both to improper fractions
5 1/3 = (5 X 3 + 1)/ 3 = (16/3)
4 2/3= (4 x 3 + 2)/ 3 = (14/3)

Now you can add them:
(16 + 14) / 3 = 30/ 3 = 10

*Subtracting them is the same, but change the + to a - (16-14)/3 = 2/3

You can also multiply them:
(16 x 14)/ (3 x 3) = (224) / (9)

Now, to divide 9 into 224
...____
9 l 224

9 doesn't go into 2 but it does go into 22. (2 times)
...__2_
9 l 224
....-180
.......44

9 goes into 44, 4 times:
.._24
9l224
...-180
.....44
.....-36

There is 8 left over, so your final answer would be:

24 8/9

*Dividing is sort of the same. Instead, however, you multiply by the RECIPROCAL of the denomenator(the fraction on the bottom). The reciprocal is the fraction "flipped". So, if it is x/y, the reciprocal is y/x. So:

(16/3) / (14/3) = (16/3) x (3/14)

Now multiply across:

(16 x 3) / (14 x 3)

Since you have a x3 on the top and bottom, it cancels out. So you're left with:

16/14= 8/7 = 1 1/7

Answer 2

that's too ambiguous.

5 x 1/3 x 4 x 2/3 ?

5 (1/3) x 4 (2/3) ?

what's the actual question?

Answer 3

I'm not sure what you want to do with these numbers.

If you want to add them, the answer is 10.

If you want to subtract them, the answer is 2/3.

If you want to multiply them it would be 16/3 x 14/3 = 24 8/9.

If you are trying to divide them it would be 16/3 x 3/14 = 1 1/7.

Answer 4

are you adding or multipying??


Adding= 10

dont feel like multiplying it!! sorry!! do yer own work lol

Answer 5

there are no operations to do.....
