What is the sum of the greatest and least numbers below: \[8\frac15, \qquad -8\frac25, \qquad -\frac{26}{3}, \qquad -\frac{54}7, \qquad \frac{53}{6}.\]

Step-by-step explanation:

The objective of this question is to find the  sum of the greatest and least numbers below:

To do this ; we will need to find the decimal component of each of them and equate them on a number line before summing the greatest and least numbers.

Thus; the above decimal component of the fractions given are :

8.2, -8.4, -8.7 , -7.7 and 8.8

We are to find the sum of the greatest and the smallest number ; on a number line; we will realize that the positive side is greater than the negative side , As such the greatest number from the positive side will be 8.8 and the smallest number will be -7.7

The sum of 8.8 + ( -7.7 ) = 8.8 - 7.7

= 1.1

i.e

i think it is c, not positive though
