Question

What is the sum of 8/10 + 60/100

Answer 1

`1(2)/(5)`

Explanation:

`(8)/(10) + (60)/(100)`

first, make sure both equations have the same denominators:

`(8)/(10)` x 10 =
`(80)/(100)`

now, take both fractions, add the numerators but keep the denominators:

`(80)/(100) + (60)/(100)` =
`(140)/(100)`

reduce:

`(140)/(100)` =
`1(40)/(100) = 1 (4)/(10) = 1(2)/(5)`
