Jett scores 3 1/3 points in the first round of a game and 3 2/5 points in the second round. How many total points does he score for both rounds?

2 answers

To add the fractions, we need to convert them to have the same denominator.

The fraction 1/3 and 2/5 share a multiple of 15 to have the same denominator.
Writing them as equivalent fractions, we get 1/3 = (1/3)(5/5) = 5/15 and 2/5 = (2/5)(3/3) = 6/15.

So, the points Jett scores in two rounds is 3 5/15 + 3 6/15 = 8 11/15.

Therefore, Jett scores a total of 8 11/15 points in both rounds. Answer: \boxed{8 \frac{11}{15}}.
