Answer 1

The total weight of the Italian sandwich in its simplest fraction is 3/5.

meat      : 0.35  in fraction 35/100
veggies : 0.15 in fraction 15/100
sauce    : 0.05 in fraction 5/100
bread     : 0.05 in fraction 5/100

Total weight = 35/100 + 15/100 + 5/100 + 5/100
                    = (35 + 15 + 5 + 5) / 100
                    = 60/100

To simplify the fraction:

60/100 ⇒ 60 ÷ 10 = 6 ; 100 ÷ 10 = 10 ⇒ 6/10
6/10 ⇒ 6 ÷ 2 = 3 ; 10 ÷ 2 = 5 ⇒ 3/5
