Solve the following exercise:
31+92=?
To solve this problem, let's follow these steps:
- Step 1: Identify the common denominator.
Since 9 is a multiple of 3, our least common denominator will be 9.
- Step 2: Convert 31 to an equivalent fraction with a denominator of 9.
To do this, multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 3: 3×31×3=93.
- Step 3: The other fraction, 92, already has the denominator 9, so we don't need to change it.
- Step 4: Add the fractions 93+92.
- Step 5: Add the numerators: 3+2=5.
- Step 6: Combine over the common denominator: 95.
Therefore, the solution to the problem is 95.
