karen brought 3/8 of a gallon of ice tea to a party. Robin brought 15/16 of a gallon of ice tea to the same party. How much ice
Rudiy27

Answer:

1  5/16 gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

Gallon of ice brought by Karen = 3/8

Gallon of ice brought by Robin = 15/16

Total ice team brought by them is sum of Gallon of ice brought by Karen + Gallon of ice brought by Robin

Total ice team brought by Karen and Robin = 3/8 + 15/16

=>  3*2/8*2 + 15/16

we are multiplying with 2 both numerator and denominator in 3/8 so sas the denominator becomes 16 as in other fraction denominator is 16

=> 6/16 + 15/16

=> (6+15)/16 = 21/16

since 21/16 is improper fraction, converting it in mixed fraction we have

21/16 = 1  5/16 gallon

Thus , Karen and Robin have 1  5/16 gallon ice tea together.
