Please help! Will fan and medal!!! Jayden and Alexa were asked if 6C2 + 6C3 = 7C3 is true. Their calculations showed it was not true, but they both made mistakes in their calculations. Explain and correct their mistakes. I already corrected jaydens mistakes, but i cant figure out how to fix Alexa's. So please help. Alexa added the fractions by using the LCD (least common denominator). Ill type her work in the comments
Step 1 6! 6! --- + --- 2!4! 3!3! Step 2 6! 4*6! ---- + ----- 4*3!3! 4*3!3! Step 3 5*6! ------ 4*3!3! Step 4 7! 7*6! ---- = ----- 3!4! 4*3!3! Step 5 5*6! 7*6! ----- not equal ----- 4*3!3! 4*3!3!
