Sam works 1/5 hour at the register of a store. He works 2/3 hour in the back stock room and 1/2 hour helping customers. How many
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Sam worked  \frac{41}{30}  hours that day (fractional answer)

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of hours Sam worked is the sum of all the three hours given.

Let's add the first 2 using LCM and then add that result with the last.

Firstly:

\frac{1}{5}+\frac{2}{3}\\=\frac{1(3)+2(5)}{15}\\=\frac{13}{15}

Now,

\frac{13}{15}+\frac{1}{2}\\=\frac{13(2)+1(15)}{30}\\=\frac{41}{30}

The hours worked by Sam is 41/30 hours (fractional answer).
