To find the total score, we need to add the scores from the first and second round.
In the first round, Jett scored 3 1/3 points. This can be written as 3 + 1/3, or 10/3.
In the second round, Jett scored 3 2/5 points. This can be written as 3 + 2/5, or 17/5.
To find the total score, we add these fractions: 10/3 + 17/5.
To add these fractions, we need a common denominator. The least common denominator for 3 and 5 is 15.
Converting the fractions to have a denominator of 15:
10/3 can be written as (10/3) * (5/5), which equals 50/15.
17/5 can be written as (17/5) * (3/3), which equals 51/15.
Adding these fractions: 50/15 + 51/15 = (50 + 51)/15 = 101/15.
Therefore, Jett scored a total of 101/15 points for both rounds.
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?(1 point)
