Question

Jisoo drank 3/8 of a quart of chocolate milk, and his friend Andrew drank 2/7 of the same quart. How much did they drink altogether?

Answer 1

37/56

Explanation:

If Jisoo drank 3/8 of a quart of chocolate milk, and his friend Andrew drank 2/7 of the same quart, the amount they drank altogether will be the sum of the amount they drank individually

Total = 3/8 + 2/7

Find the LCM

Total = 3(7)+8(2)/56

Total = (21+16)/56

Total = 37/56

Hence they drank 37/56 of the quartz altogether
