Question

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: 2/8 + 6/5

2/8 can be further broken down into 1/4 ;

Therefore, we have; 1/4 + 6/5

FROM HERE WE CAN USE TWO METHODS

METHOD 1; Converting each fraction to decimal, then adding up.

1/4= 0.25. & 6/5= 1.2

Adding both we have 0.25+1.2=1.45

METHOD 2: Adding both fraction and then converting your answer to decimal

1/4 + 6/5 = 29/20

29/20 = 1.45
