Question

Lisa's penny bank is 1/10 full. After she adds 440 pennies, it is 3/5 full. How many pennies can Lisa's bank hold?

Answer 1

Answer: 704 pennies

7/10 Of her bank is Full. 7/10 = 70% Since 7 + 3 = 10 I need to figure out how much 3/5 or 6/10 of the jar is...then I Did 60% of 440 = 264

264 + 440 = 704 Pennies.

So Lisa has 1/10 of Her Bank Full before she added the 3/5.

Step 1: Make sure the bottom numbers (the denominators) are the same.

Step 2: Add the top numbers (the numerators), put that answer over the denominator.

Step 3: Simplify the fraction (if needed)

Here is What I Did:

1/10 + 3/5 = 1/10 + 3 x 2/5 x 2 = 1/10 + 6/10 = 7/10
