Question:

Mrs. Reyes bought 8 ¼ m of pink cloth, 13 2/7 m of purple cloth, and 11 6/8 m of beige cloth. How many meters of cloth did she buy in all?​

Given:

8 ¼ m of pink cloth

13 2/7 m of purple cloth

11 6/8 m of beige cloth

Solution:

= 8 1/4 + 13 2/7 + 11 6/8

= 33 / 4 + 93 / 7 + 94/8

= (462 + 744 + 658) / 56

= 1864 / 56

= 8(233) / 8(7)

=233 / 7 or 33 2/7

Answer:

She have bought 33  2/7 meters of cloth.
