How do you add a fraction and a mixed number?

So say you are adding 1/2 and 1 1/2

you would turn the mixed number into a improper fraction by multiplying the denominator by the whole number, then add it to the numerator

for this example it would be 2 x 1 = 2 + 1 = 3 then put it over the denominator

we would get 3/2 then we add 1/2 to it getting 4/2,

then depending on the question we would either leave it as an improper fraction like 4/2 or we would turn it to a mixed fraction, 2 but it will not always be a whole number like this.

like for example if this problem was 1/4 + 1 2/4 we could get 1 3/4

I hope that this helped you somehow because I tried to explain this to the best of my ability.

To add or subtract mixed numbers, we first convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions by multiplying the whole number with the denominator and adding the result to the numerator, this becomes the new numerator and we retain the original denominator.

step-by-step explanation:

well, michelle wanted to measure the height of her school's flagpole she placed a mirror on the ground 48 feet from the flagpole then walk backwards until she was able to see the top of the pole in the mirror her eyes were 5 feet above the ground and she was 12 ft from the mirror using similar triangles find the height of the flagpole to the nearest tenth of a foot find the geometric mean of them pair of numbers. its easy math

no he doesnt because "-16' is negatiive
