Question 948667
1.) -5 1/5 and 8 2/3
Find a common denominator and add
(-26/5)(3/3)=-78/15
(26/3)(5/5)=130/15
130/15+(-78/15)=52/15 Divide by 2
(52/15)(1/2)=26/15  ANSWER The Number halfway between is 1 11/15
CHECK:
From -5 1/5(-78/15) to 26/15 is {{{(26-(-78))/15}}}=104/15
From 8 2/3 (130/15) to 26/15 is {{{(130-26)/15}}}=104/15
