Question

The bakery shop purchased 7 2/10 pounds of sugar and 7 5/10 pounds of flour. How much sugar and flour did they purchase in all?​

Answer 1

Sugar = 1-2/5 pounds, Flour = 3-1/2 pounds

Together = 5-9/10 pounds

Explanation:

sugar = 7(2/10)

flour = 7(5/10)

sugar + flour = 7(2/10) + 7(5/10)

sugar = 14/10 or 1-2/5 pounds

flour = 35/10 or 3-1/2 pounds
