  • 2. 

    Add and reduce to simplest term.1/7 + 2/7

    Explanation
    To add fractions, we need to have the same denominator. In this case, both fractions have a denominator of 7, so we can simply add the numerators. Adding 1 and 2 gives us 3, and the denominator remains 7. Therefore, the sum of 1/7 and 2/7 is 3/7.

    Add and reduce to simplest term.2/9 + 2/9

    Explanation
    The given question asks to add the fractions 2/9 and 2/9 and then reduce the result to its simplest form. When we add 2/9 and 2/9, we get 4/9. This fraction cannot be simplified any further, so the answer is 4/9.

    Add and reduce to simplest term.5/8 + 1/8

    Explanation
    To add fractions, we need a common denominator. In this case, both fractions have a denominator of 8. So, we can add the numerators together and keep the denominator the same. 5/8 + 1/8 = (5+1)/8 = 6/8. To simplify the fraction, we can divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2. Dividing 6 by 2 and 8 by 2 gives us 3/4. Therefore, the simplest form of 5/8 + 1/8 is 3/4.

    Add and reduce to simplest term.3/10 + 1/10

    Explanation
    To add fractions, we need to have a common denominator. In this case, both fractions have a denominator of 10, so we can simply add the numerators. 3/10 + 1/10 equals 4/10, which can be simplified to 2/5 by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 2. Therefore, the correct answer is 2/5.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    Add and reduce to simplest term.7/15 + 2/15

    Explanation
    To add fractions, we need a common denominator. In this case, both fractions already have a denominator of 15, so we can simply add the numerators. 7/15 + 2/15 equals 9/15. To simplify this fraction, we can divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor, which is 3. So, 9/15 simplifies to 3/5.
