A football player weighed 170 2/3 pounds in May. During the summer, he gained 25 5/12 pounds. During the first week of fall practice, he lost 10 1/4 pounds, and during the second week he lost another 3 1/2 pounds. How much did he weigh at that point?

Respuesta :

He weighed 182 pounds at that point.
(170 2/3 + 25 5/12) - 10 1/4 - 3 1/2
(512/3 + 305/12) - 41/4 - 7/2
2048/12 + 305/12 - 123/12 - 42/12
(2353/12) - 81/12
2271/12 or 189 1/4 pounds
