Question

What is 2 7/27 + 8 5/9=?

Answer 1

`10 22/27`

Explanation:

Assuming you mean `2 7/27+8 5/9`,
you can convert these into improper fractions (see here).

Now we have `(54+7)/27+(72+5)/9=61/27+77/9`
But we have two different denominators! So we have to make them similar. Remember that `9*3=27`, so we can convert the right fraction to denominator 27.

`61/27+(77*3)/(9*3)=61/27+231/27`
Adding the numerators gets you `292/27`. If you use this then you can convert to `10 22/27` (don't worry, the link explains the steps).
