Answer:

1 2/15 loaves

Explanation:

In a restaurant:

Total Loaf of wheat bread = 5/6

Total Loaf is white bread = 3/10

The total number of loaves that were served in all =

Loaf of wheat bread + Loaf of white bread

= 5/6 + 3/10

Lowest Common Denominator = 30.

Hence:

= 25 + 9/30

= 34/30

= 1 4/30

= 1 2/15 loaves

The total number of loaves served in all = 1 2/15 loaves
