Answer 2

Answer:

Total number of flat screen sold is 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of the flat screen sold be y

y = number of flat screen sold in the morning + number of the flat screen sold in the afternoon.

Number sold in the morning = 5/15

Number sold in the afternoon = 1/3

Y = 5/12 + 1/3

Find the LCM of 12 and 3

Y = (5 + 4)/12

Y = 9/12

Y = 3/4

Total number of flat screen sold is 3/4
