SOLUTION:
Choco Cereal
Solving the whole number parts

2+3=5

Solving the fraction parts

1/7+6/7=7/7 =1/1=1

Combining the whole and fraction parts

5+1=6

Chocolate Chips

1 1/3−1/8

Find the LCD of 1/3 and 1/8 and rewrite to solve with the equivalent fractions.
LCD = 24
8/24−3/24=5/24

Combining the whole and fraction parts

1+5/24= 1 5/24

Powdered Sugar

2/10−1/3=?

Find the LCD of 2/10 and 1/3 and rewrite to solve with the equivalent fractions.
LCD = 30

6/30−10/30=−4/30

Reducing the fraction part, 4/30,

4/30=2/15
Cake Mix

9/14+6/7=?

Find the LCD of 9/14 and 6/7 and rewrite to solve with the equivalent fractions.
LCD = 14

9/14+12/14=21/14

Reducing the fraction part, 21/14,

21/14=3/2

Simplifying the fraction part, 3/2,

3/2= 1 1/2

Rainbow Sprinkler

=2+2/4−3−3/4

Solving the whole number parts

2−3=−1

Solving the fraction parts

2/4−3/4=−1/4
Combining the whole and fraction parts

−1−1/4= −1 1/4
