Answer:

0.7 or 7/10

Explanation:

When adding fractions they always need to have the same denominators,and the one they both have similar to is being equal to 10.

1/2 will get multiply with 5 on the numinator and the denominator having you get a fraction of 5/10.

You will do the same with 1/5 multiply it with 2 on the numinator and denominator having you get 5/10.

Since the dneominators are the same you keep it 10,and just add 5 and 2. Giving you a answer of 7/10
