Answer 1

HELP

Answer 2

1. Rename the mixed numbers with common denominators
2. Add the mixed numbers together to get 15 4/6
3. Subtract the sum from 26 to get 10 1/2
4. Since the only term left on the left is k so k=10 1/2

Answer 3

so u have to add all of the fractions then subtract what you got from 26 1/6 to get K

Answer 4

so do I change 6 1/3 to 19/3 and then change all the ether ones the same way

now you have to find out how many times the denominator goes into 12 how many times does 3 go into 12?

Answer 26

4

Answer 27

great so you multiply 3*4 to get 12 right? :)

Answer 28

yes

Answer 29

okay so what you do to the bottom you do to the top and since you multiplied the bottom by 4 you multiply the top by 4, so what is 19*4?

okay so you would multiply the numerator by 2 so what is 23*2?

Answer 34

46

Answer 35

oh great! :) so since you have 46 put it over 12, and your fraction is going to be 46/12

Answer 36

so can you do 11/2 by yourself or do you want my help wit it still? :)

Answer 37

I can do it just how do I find out K by doing this and the answer to 11/2 is 23/2

Answer 38

not quite 2 goes into 12 6 times so you would multiply 11*6 and get 66 then put that over 12 to get 66/12

Answer 39

o ya sorry i new that just my mind went blank

Answer 40

no its ok so then u add 76/12+46/12+66/12 but dont add the denominator just the numerators then add /12 to the answer you get :)

Answer 41

188 is 76+46+66

Answer 42

Answer 46

2

Answer 47

so then u multiply the top by 2 so 156*2=?

Answer 48

312

Answer 49

great put that over 12 so u have 312/12 and subtract 188/12 remember since the denominators are the same leave them alone so just do 312-188 and put it over /12

Answer 50

124/12

Answer 51

wonderful! now turn that into a mixed number do you know how to do that?
