It's your turn, KayKay. How do you think this problem should be solved?
I think I got it would it be 2 1/2?
Right! :-)
6 11/12=6+(11/12)
6*12=72 , 6=(72/12)
6+(11/12)=(72+11)/12= (83/12)
4 5/12=4+5/12
4*12=48 , 4=(48/12)
4+5/12=(48+5)/12= (53/12)
6 11/12-4 5/12=(83/12)-(53/12)=(30/12)= (5*6)/(2*6)=5/2
6*12=72 , 6=(72/12)
6+(11/12)=(72+11)/12= (83/12)
4 5/12=4+5/12
4*12=48 , 4=(48/12)
4+5/12=(48+5)/12= (53/12)
6 11/12-4 5/12=(83/12)-(53/12)=(30/12)= (5*6)/(2*6)=5/2
