Solution :

The correct answer is:

257

Step-by-Step Explanation:

To find the sum of the mixed numbers, we can separate each mixed number into its integer (whole number) component and its fractional component.

We are given the expression:

9137+8357+8167

Step 1: Group the whole numbers and fractions separately.

By using the associative and commutative properties of addition, we can rewrite the expression as:

(91+83+81)+(37+57+67)

Step 2: Add the whole numbers together.

91+83+81=255

Step 3: Add the fractional parts together.

Since all the fractions have the same common denominator of 7, we simply add their numerators:

37+57+67=3+5+67=147=2

Step 4: Combine the whole number sum and the fractional sum.

Now, add the sum of the whole numbers to the simplified sum of the fractions:

255+2=257

Therefore, the final value of the given expression is 257.
