Question

Jared used 1 2/5 bags of solo for a garden. He is digging another garden that will need 1/5 as much soil as the original. How much will he use total?

Answer 1

1 3/5, since they have the same denominator, it’s easy to just add them.

1/5 + 2/5 is pretty much 1+2= 3, so 3/5 plus one whole is 1 3/5
