Answer: the first answer is 8 and 5/8, #2, (bottom left) is 17 and 6/10. #3, (top right) is 6 and 3/8. #4, (bottom right) is 19 and 3/10.

Step-by-step explanation: to add fractions, you have to have a common denominator. to get a common denominator, you multiply one or both sides to make the same number on the bottom. when you multiply the bottom, you also have to multiply the top. After that, you add the top numbers and add the whole numbers next to it. Then you just put the numbers together.

Hope this helps! if it is wrong, could you please correct me.

Answer:

$\dfrac{4}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given 2 fractional numbers:

$1.\ \dfrac{2}4\\2.\ \dfrac{5}8$

We have to use fraction strips to compare to the fractional numbers.

Let we are Comparing $\frac{2}{4}$ with the length of $x$ number of $\frac{1}4$ sections.

i.e.

$\dfrac{2}{4} = x \times \dfrac{1}{4}\\\Rightarrow x = \dfrac{2 \times 4}{4}\\\Rightarrow x = 2$

Let we are Comparing $\frac{5}{8}$ with the length of $y$ number of $\frac{1}8$ sections.

i.e.

$\dfrac{5}{8} = y \times \dfrac{1}{8}\\\Rightarrow y = \dfrac{5 \times 8}{8}\\\Rightarrow y = 5$

Now, let us have a look at 3rd part of question:

The sections of 2/4 is _____ the length of 5/8. Therefore, 2/4 < 5/8

Let the answer be $z$ .

So, the equation becomes:

$\dfrac{2}{4} = z \times \dfrac{5}{8}\\\Rightarrow z = \dfrac{2 \times 8}{4 \times 5}\\\Rightarrow z = \dfrac{2 \times 2}{5}\\\Rightarrow z = \dfrac{4}{5}$
