Answer :

Answer:

4 5/6 = n

Step-by-step explanation:

5 1/2 = n+ 2/3

Subtract 2/3 from each side

5 1/2 - 2/3 = n+ 2/3 -2/3

5 1/2 - 2/3 = n

Get a common denominator of 6

5 1/2 * 3/3 = 5 3/6

2/3 = 2/3 * 2/2 = 4/6

5 3/6 - 4/6 = n

We need to borrow 1 from the 5 in the form of 6/6

5 3/6 = 4 6/6+ 3/6 = 4 9/6

4 9/6 - 4/6 =n

4 5/6 = n
