3 + 2/17 + 4 =
You asked:
Evaluate the expression: \(3 + \frac{2}{17} + 4\)
MathBot Answer:
\[ 3 + \frac{2}{17} + 4 = \frac{121}{17} = 7.\overline{1176470588235294} \]
The sum can be computed by rewriting each term over a common denominator, where the least common denominator of \(\frac{3}{1}\), \(\frac{2}{17}\), and \(\frac{4}{1}\) is \(17\). \[ \begin{aligned} 3 + \frac{2}{17} + 4 &= \frac{3 \cdot 17}{1 \cdot 17} + \frac{2 \cdot 1}{17 \cdot 1} + \frac{4 \cdot 17}{1 \cdot 17} \\ &= \frac{51 + 2 + 68}{17} \\ &= \frac{121}{17} \end{aligned} \]
