5 1/3 + (-3 9/18)

Hello there!

I understand the notation 5 1/3 is equivalent to 5 + 1/3 = 5.333...

our equation is 5 +1/3 +(-3 +9/18)

first we could simplify the 9/18 as 1/2 (dividing both numerator and denominator by 9)

then the equation is:

=5+ 1/3 - (3 +1/2)

=5 + 1/3 - 3 - 1/2

=5 -3 + (1/3 - 1/2)

the common factor betwe 3 and 2 is 6, then:

=2 + (2/6 - 3/6) = 2 -1/6

this can be written as:

= 2 - 1/6 = 1 + 1 -1/6 = 1 + ( 1-1/6) = 1 + 5/6

or = 1 5/6 using the original notation.

answer: i'm not going to give you the answer, but some hints to work it out.

step-by-step explanation: so, if there is a straight line that means that the line angle is 180°. so we subtract the 2 angle measures provided, (15 and 38) from 180. so the answer is 180 - (38 + 15). (you have to solve the equation)
