Question
Find the sum $2\frac{4}{5}+1\frac{3}{10}+3\frac{1}{15}$.
✓
Answer
We have, $2\frac{4}{5}+1\frac{3}{10}+3\frac{1}{15}$ $=\frac{14}{5}+\frac{13}{10}+\frac{46}{15}$ $\begin{array}{c|c}5&5,10,15\\\hline2&1,2,3\ \ \ \\\hline3&1,1,3\ \ \ \\\hline&1,1,1\ \ \ \end{array}$ L.C.M. of 5, 10 and 15 = (5 × 2 × 3) = 30 $(30\div5=6,6\times14=84)$ $(30\div10=3,3\times13=39)$ and $(30\div15=2,2\times46=92)$ $=\frac{84+39+92}{30}$ $=\frac{215}{30}$ $=\frac{43}{6}$ $=7\frac{1}{6}$
