Answer:
it translates to something i can't say on here ;)
In order to add these fractions we have to make a common denominator.
1/5 can turn into 2/10 Its the same thing. And its easier to solve with.
now lets multiply.
× 
Now we add across
2 + 1 = 3
------------
10 + 10 = 10 ( When adding fractions like these the denominator stays the same)
So your answer is...

Good Luck! :)
Answer:
<h2>
$400</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the formula for calculating the simple interest expressed as;
Simple Interest = Principal * rate * time/100
Note that the principal is the amount he originally borrowed
I = PRT/100 ............ 1
Amount paid off A = Principal+Interest
A = P+I ............ 2
From equation 2; I = A-P......... 3
Substitute equation 3 into 1;
A-P = PRT/100
Given A = $440, R = 10%, Time = 1year
Substitute the given parameters into the resulting equation;
440 - P = P*10*1/100
440-P = 10P/100
440-P = 0.1P
440 = 0.1P+P
440 = 1.1P
Divide through by 1.1;
1.1P/1.1 = 440/1.1
P = $400
<em>Hence the amount Mr Noel originally borrow is $400</em>
