Question

Carly made a beaded necklace. 4/18 of the beads are blue and 1/3 are green. What fraction of the beads in the necklace are blue or green?

Answer 1

Find a common denominator. Ex:18
1/3=6/18
4/18=4/18

6/18+4/18=10/18

So, 10/18 fraction of the beads in the necklace are blue or green

Answer 2

10/18 of the beads are green or blue but 10/18 can be reduced down to 5/9
