Question

Work out and simplify where possible 1/5 + 3/10

Answer 1

Answer:
1/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

1/5 + 3/10 is not possible to do, until we make the denominators the same. In order to do that, we have figure out GCF/GCD. Which in this case is 5. 5x2 is 10 and we do the same for the numerator. So,1/5 becomes 2/10. Which now we can add:
2/10 + 3/10.

We will only add the numerators and keep the denominators. Which gives us,
5/10,
But, this answer is not simplified.

Dividing by 5,
We got 1/2.

Which is our final answer.

Hopefully this helped. :))

Answer 2

(1/5) + (3/10) = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given problem,

→ (1/5) + (3/10)

Let's solve the problem,

→ (1/5) + (3/10)

→ (2/10) + (3/10)

→ (2 + 3)/10

→ 5/10

→ 1/2

Thus, the answer is 1/2.
