Answer 7

for example,

\[18 {1 \over 15}= 18 + {1 \over 15}\]

so

\[{18*15+1 \over 15} = {217 \over 15}\]

Answer 8

you do the same thing with the other fraction,
but before we do that, we need to make the denominator common.

so instead of

\[9 {3 \over 5}\] we will use

\[9 {9 \over 15}\]

which as an improper fraction, is

\[{9*15+9 \over 15} = {144 \over 15}\]

Answer 9

Who elsee gott daht?

Answer 10

now if you subtract them,

\[{217 - 144 \over 15} = {73 \over 15}\]

Answer 11

if you need it as a mixed number,

73 / 15 = 4 remainder 13

so

\[4 {13 \over 15}\]
