Answer 1

From the picture, it can be observed that the fractions shaded in the first rectangle is 1/6 and in the second rectangle is 4/5. To find the sum of the fractions, we need to find a common denominator.

The common denominator for 6 and 5 is 30.

To convert 1/6 into a fraction with a denominator of 30, we multiply the numerator and denominator by 5:

1/6 * 5/5 = 5/30

To convert 4/5 into a fraction with a denominator of 30, we multiply the numerator and denominator by 6:

4/5 * 6/6 = 24/30

Now we can add the fractions:

5/30 + 24/30 = 29/30

Therefore, the sum of the fractions shaded in the two rectangles is 29/30.

Answer 2

Add the following fractions: 150 + 3/5???????

Answer 3

To add the fractions 150 and 3/5, we need to find a common denominator. The denominators here are 1 and 5. To make 1 have a denominator of 5, we multiply the numerator and denominator by 5:
1/1 * 5/5 = 5/5

Now we can add the fractions:
5/5 + 3/5 = 8/5

Therefore, the sum of 150 and 3/5 is 8/5.

Answer 4

Add the following fractions: 1/50 + 3/5

Answer 5

To add the fractions 1/50 and 3/5, we need to find a common denominator. The denominators here are 50 and 5.

Since 5 is a factor of 50, we can directly use 50 as the common denominator.

To convert 1/50 into a fraction with a denominator of 50, we simply keep the numerator as 1:

1/50 = 1/50

To convert 3/5 into a fraction with a denominator of 50, we multiply the numerator and denominator by 10:

3/5 * 10/10 = 30/50

Now we can add the fractions:

1/50 + 30/50 = 31/50

Therefore, the sum of 1/50 and 3/5 is 31/50.
