The morning temp in atlanta, georgia is 21 1/4 c. during the day, it warms up 6 2/7 c. what is the new temperature?

27 15/28 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are adding 21 1/4 to 6 2/7, we need to find the LCD, or, least common denominator, so that we can add 1/4 and 2/7 together.

1*4=4             1*7=7

2*4=8           2*7=14

3*4=12          3*7=21

4*4=16          4*7=28

5*4=20

6*4=24

7*4=28

Since we had to multiply 7 four times to get it equal to 28, we need to take 2/7 * 4/4. This will give you 8/28. Then, since we multiplied 4 seven times to get it equal to 28, we need to take 1/4 *7/7. This will give you 7/28. Finally, you need to add 8/28 and 7/28 since they now share the same denominator.

8/28 + 7/28=15/28

For our last step, we need to add the whole numbers together so the answer is complete.

21+6=27

27+15/28= 27 15/28 degrees
