16/5+5/3
You asked:
Evaluate the expression: \(\frac{16}{5} + \frac{5}{3}\)
MathBot Answer:
\[ \frac{16}{5} + \frac{5}{3} = \frac{73}{15} = 4.8\overline{6} \]
The sum can be computed by rewriting each term over a common denominator, where the least common denominator of \(\frac{16}{5}\) and \(\frac{5}{3}\) is \(15\). \[ \begin{aligned} \frac{16}{5} + \frac{5}{3} &= \frac{16 \cdot 3}{5 \cdot 3} + \frac{5 \cdot 5}{3 \cdot 5} \\ &= \frac{48 + 25}{15} \\ &= \frac{73}{15} \end{aligned} \]
