Answer 1

Well to do this you can just find the lcd for 5 and 2 which would be 10 and it would become 2 5/10 + 1 6/10 = 3 11/10 = 4 1/10

1 1/5 + 1 1/3 = 2 7/10
2 1/4 + 1 5/6 = 3 13/12 = 4 1/12
3 2/3 + 1 2/3 = 3 4/3 = 4 1/3
1 1/5 + 2 1/2 = 3 7/10
1 1/5 + 1 1/2 = 2 7/10
1 1/2 + 1 1/3 =2 5/6
3 2/3 + 2 2/3 = 5 4/3 = 6 1/3
1 3/5 + 1 1/3 = 2 14/15
1 2/5 + 1 4/5 = 2 6/5 = 3 1/5
1 3/4 + 1 1//4 = 3 4/4 = 4
2 1/2 + 5 1/2 = 7 2/2 = 8
