Afootball 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?
a: 182 1/3 lb
b: 181 1/2 lb
c: 182 5/12 lb
d: 183 2/3 lb
?

182 1/3 lbs

MAY:  weight = 170 2/3

Summer: gained 25 5/12

New weight : 170 2/3 + 25 5/12  

Get a common denominator of 12

170 2/3 *4/4  + 25 5/12

170 8/12 + 25 5/12 = 195 13/12

The he lost 10 1/4 during the first week of fall practice

195 13/12 - 10 1/4

We need to get a common denominator of 12

195 13/12 - 10 1/4*3/3

195 13/12 - 10 3/12

185 10/12

The he lost another 3 1/2 pound during the second week

185 10/12 - 3 1/2

We need to get a common denominator of 12

185 10/12 - 3 1/2 * 6/6

185 10/12 - 3 6/12

182 4/12

Simplify the fraction

182 1/3 lbs
