Answer:

1 1/5 or 12/10

Explanation:

310+910=?

The two fractions have like denominators so you can add the numerators.

Then:

3+910=1210

This fraction can be reduced by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor of 12 and 10 using

GCF(12,10) = 2

12÷210÷2=65

The fraction

65

is the same as

6÷5

Convert to a mixed number using

long division for 6 ÷ 5 = 1R1, so

65=115

Therefore:

310+910=1 1/5

Hope this Helps!
