Question

there are two identical fridges for desserts. one of the fridge has 5/8 of its room left and the other fridge is only 1/8 full. how much room is left?

Answer 1

Read below.

Explanation:

First fridge:
`(8)/(8) -(5)/(8) =(3)/(8)`

Second fridge:
`(8)/(8) -(1)/(8) =(7)/(8)`

`(7)/(8) +(3)/(8) = (10)/(8) = 1 (2)/(8)=1(1)/(4)`

Combined
`1 (1)/(4)` fridge space is left.

Answer 2

1.5

Explanation:

5/8 + 7/8= 1.5 or 1 1/2
