OpenStudy (anonymous):
From your original question?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so its 3x6=18 and them use the 5
OpenStudy (anonymous):

23/6 is same as 23 * 1/6
OpenStudy (anonymous):
but why do you have the 23
OpenStudy (anonymous):
U have 18 * 1/6 in 3 + 5*1/6 = 23*1/6 = 23/6
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok
