Question

$$0.4+3+2\frac{1}{4}$$

Evaluate

$5.65$

Solution Steps

Add $0.4$ and $3$ to get $3.4$.

$$3.4+\frac{2\times 4+1}{4}$$

Multiply $2$ and $4$ to get $8$.

$$3.4+\frac{8+1}{4}$$

Add $8$ and $1$ to get $9$.

$$3.4+\frac{9}{4}$$

Convert decimal number $3.4$ to fraction $\frac{34}{10}$. Reduce the fraction $\frac{34}{10}$ to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out $2$.

$$\frac{17}{5}+\frac{9}{4}$$

Least common multiple of $5$ and $4$ is $20$. Convert $\frac{17}{5}$ and $\frac{9}{4}$ to fractions with denominator $20$.

$$\frac{68}{20}+\frac{45}{20}$$

Since $\frac{68}{20}$ and $\frac{45}{20}$ have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{68+45}{20}$$

Add $68$ and $45$ to get $113$.

$$\frac{113}{20}$$
