Answer:

1/2

Explanation:

If joy completes 1/10 of the painting every day, for her to complete it in five days, we need to add 1/10 with each other five times.

1/10+1/10+1/10+1/10+1/10

Since the denominators are all the same, they stay constant at 10. The numerator we can add since the denominators are the same.

5/10 simplifies to 1/2
