Answer: 1 1/10


Step-by-step explanation: Multiplying numerators and denominators to get the LCD in all fraction denominators

=1/2Ă—5/5 + 3/5*2/2

Then rewriting the equation with the equivalent fractions

=5 1/0+6 1/0

With like denominators we can operate on just the numerators

=5+6/10

=11/10

Simplifying the answer

=11/10

=1 1/10
