Answer 1

To find the missing numerator in the expression \( \frac{13}{24} + \frac{?}{24} = \frac{19}{24} \), you can set up the equation as follows:

\[ \frac{13 + ?}{24} = \frac{19}{24} \]

Now, since both fractions have the same denominator, you can equate the numerators:

\[ 13 + ? = 19 \]

To find the missing numerator, subtract 13 from both sides:

\[ ? = 19 - 13 \] \[ ? = 6 \]

Therefore, the missing numerator is 6.
