N+3 5/6=5 1/3 NEED TO CONVERT THE MIXED FRACTION TO IMPROPER FRACTIONS THUS:
\n" ); document.write( "N+(3*6+5)/6=(5*3+1)/3 NOW WE SET N EQUAL TO THESE TWO FRACTIONS
\n" ); document.write( "N=(15+1)/3-(18+3)/6
\n" ); document.write( "N=16/3-23/6 NOW FIND A COMMON DENOMINATOR WHICH IS 6
\n" ); document.write( "N=(16*2-23)/6
\n" ); document.write( "N=(32-23)/6
\n" ); document.write( "N=9/6
\n" ); document.write( "N=1.5 ANSWER
\n" ); document.write( "PROOF
\n" ); document.write( "1 1/2+3 5/6=5 1/3
\n" ); document.write( "3/2+23/6=16/3
\n" ); document.write( "(3*3+23)/6=(16*2)/6
\n" ); document.write( "(9+23)/6=32/6
\n" ); document.write( "32/6=32/6
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
