ok, I will try that.

Answer 9

And then do 119/12 for all five numbers?

Answer 10

hold on, what is \[10-\frac{1}{3}\]? it is certainly not \(\frac{119}{3}\)

Answer 11

if you do not know it, say so and i will show you how to get it easily

Answer 12

oh. i made an error calculating. It is 29/12

Answer 13

right?

Answer 14

yes that is correct
since \[10-\frac{1}{3}=\frac{29}{3}\] if you add up \[\frac{1}{3}+\frac{29}{12}+\frac{29}{12}+\frac{29}{12}+\frac{29}{12}\] you will get ten
