Question

For the first four months of the year , rain fell as follows : 2 1/2 inches , 3 1/4 inched , 1 1/8 inches and 1 1/2 inches . What was the total rainfall for these four months ?

Answer 1

8 3/8 would be the answer because first off you would have to find the 8th of the 1/2 and 1/4. Then after you get all of them then you would add them together which would be 8 3/8.
