Question

7/10+3/5

Answer 1

To add the fractions 7/10 and 3/5, you need to find a common denominator.

The smallest number that both 10 and 5 evenly divide into is 10. Therefore, you need to convert both fractions to have a denominator of 10.

To convert 7/10 to have a denominator of 10, you multiply both the numerator and denominator by 1 (since 10 divided by 10 is 1):
7/10 = (7*1)/(10*1) = 7/10

To convert 3/5 to have a denominator of 10, you multiply both the numerator and denominator by 2 (since 10 divided by 5 is 2):
3/5 = (3*2)/(5*2) = 6/10

Now that both fractions have a denominator of 10, you can add them:
7/10 + 6/10 = (7+6)/10 = 13/10

Therefore, the sum of 7/10 and 3/5 is 13/10.
