To add "mixed numbers' together they need first to be converted to 'improper fractions'. In this case two and two thirds = 8/3 and one and one eighth = 9/8 To add fractions together the denominators must be the same. This is done by finding the least common multiple of the two (or more) numbers below the divisor line. The least common multiple of 3 and 8 is 24 Now we must multiply the top and bottom of each fraction by whatever will make the bottom equal to 24. So we get 8/3 x 8/8 = 64/24 And then we get 9/8 x 3/3 = 27/24 Now we can add the two top numbers together and we get 64 + 27 = 91. The numbers believe the divisor lines are not added. The end result of the addition is 91/24. This is then converted to a mixed number by dividing 91 by 24 and this gives us 4 with a remainder of 7.... so the whole sum reduces to four and seven-twentyfourths. 4 + 7/24

How do you solve this problem .41 plus 21.4 plus 6.3 plus 280 step by step?
Here is one way: Add the first two numbers; add the result to the third number; add the result of this to the fourth number.However, to do the addition with pencil and paper, it is best to write the numbers down, one below the other, keeping the decimal points aligned. Then add from the right to the left.Here is one way: Add the first two numbers; add the result to the third number; add the result of this to the fourth number.However, to do the addition with pencil and paper, it is best to write the numbers down, one below the other, keeping the decimal points aligned.

Three fourths times two is one and a half so if you add three fourths to that you will get two and one fourth.
