1/2 + 3/8 = 7/8

1/2 + 2/5 = 7/10

3/5+1/2=___
To add them together, convert both fractions so they have the same denominator.
3/5=6/10 and 1/2=5/10
6/10+5/10=11/10, or 1 1/10

1/2+3/8=___
Same for this one- convert both fractions so they have the same denominator.
1/2=4/8 and 3/8 stays the same
4/8+3/8=7/8

1/2+2/5
And again, convert both fractions so they have the same denominator.
1/2=5/10 and 2/5= 4/10
5/10+4/10=9/10

Hope this helps :-)
