Step-by-step explanation:
1. 5/9 + 2/6
= (5 × 6)/(9 × 6) + (2 × 9)/(6 × 9)
= 30/54 + 18/54
= 48/54
= (48 ÷ 6)/(54 ÷ 6)
2. 15/16 - 6/8
= (15 × 8)/(16 × 8) - (6 × 16)/(8 × 16)
= 120/128 - 96/128
= 24/128
= (24 ÷ 8)/(128 ÷ 8)
3. 6 1/3 - 4 3/12
= 19/3 - 51/12
= (19 × 12)/(3 × 12) - (51 × 3)/(12 × 3)
= 228/36 - 153/36
= 75/36
= (75 ÷ 3)/(36 ÷ 3)
= 25/12
4. 1 7/10 - 3/7
= 17/10 - 3/7
= (17 × 7)/(10 × 7) - (3 × 10)/(7 × 10)
= 119/70 - 30/70
= 89/70
5. (4 3/4 - 2 1/8) + 1 2/10
= (19/4 - 17/8) + 12/10
= (152/32 - 68/32) + 12/10
= 84/32 + 12/10
= (84 ÷ 4)/(32 ÷ 4) + 12/10
= 21/8 + 12/10
= (21 × 10)/(8 × 10) + (12 × 8)/(10 × 8)
= 210/80 + 96/80
= 306/80
= (306 ÷ 2)/(80 ÷ 2)
= 153/40
