Answer:
97/40
Step-by-step explanation:
so 2.125= 17/8
3/10+17/8 need to find common denominator so
times 8/8 to 3/10
times 10/10 to 17/8
24/80+170/80= 194/80 (common denominator so can add)
divide 194/80 because want reduce form
97/40 is the answer
(When i look at it now i can just time 4/4 and 5/5 but its ok this still gets the answer)
