is that correct & how do you simplify it?

3 8/9 = 3 160/180
4 3/4 = 4 135/180
1 1/5 = 1 36/180
           --------------
           8 331/180

Yes, your answer is correct.

331/180 = 1 151/180

What you have is 8 + (1 151/180) = 9 151/180

(3&8/9) + (4 & 3/4) +(1 &1/5) become

(35/9)+(19/4) +(6/5)

=3.888888888888...+4.75 +1.2

=5.95+3.88888888888...

=9.83888888888888...
