Since these fractions have different denominators, we need to find the least common multiple of the denominators.The least common multiple of 2 and 5 is 10, so we need to multiply to make each of the denominators = 10

1/2 ∗ 5/5 = 5/10

5/2∗ 2/2= 4/10

Since these fractions have the same denominator, we can just add the numerators

5/10+ 4/10 = 9/10

Answer:

He sold 180 chicken sandwiches and 150 burguers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 330 items were sold, then the amount of burguers and chicken sandwiches sold must be equal to this value. From this information we have:

burguers + sandwiches = 330

We know that each burguer cost $9 and each chicken sandwich cost $11.25 and that we made a total of $3,375. So we have:

9*burguers + 11.25*sandwiches = 3,375

From the first equation we have:

burguers = 330 - sandwiches

Applying it on the second equation:

9*(330 - sandwiches) + 11.25*sandwiches = 3,375

2,970 - 9*sandwiches + 11.25*sandwiches = 3,375

2.25*sandwiches = 3,375 - 2,970

2.25*sandwiches = 405

sandwiches = 405/2.25 = 180

So,

burguers = 330 - 180 = 150

He sold 180 chicken sandwiches and 150 burguers.
