Question 242068: what is the sum of the fractions 10/20 + 1/8 +5/8

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Hello,
To add fractions, we need to have the denominators the same. For this particular problem let's get each fraction with 8 in the denominators. First reduce 10/20 to:
1/2 + 1/8 +5/8 Then multiply 1/2 times 4/4 to give us:
4/8 + 1/8 +5/8 Add these and we get:
10/8 or 1 1/4
