Question

Can someone explain to me how to add fractions? I completely forgot.

Answer 1

7 4/5

Explanation:

Step 1. Turn them into improper fractions

6 2/5 = 32/5

(6*5) + 2)

1 4/10 = 14/10

(1*10) + 4)

Step 2. If they don't have the same denominator, you have to find a common multiple (in this case, 10)

14/10 + 64/10

(14/10 × 1/1) + (32/5 × 2/2)

3. Add

14/10 + 64/10 = 78/10

4. Simplify

7 4/5
