Question

What is the sum of 4/10 and 55/100?

Answer 1

4/10 plus 55/100

The LCD is 100

4/10 --> 40/100 so, 40/100 plus 55/100 = 95/100 Or Just 19/20

Answer 2

$\frac{4}{10}~~if~we~~divide~~both~~of~~side~~with~~2~~\frac{2}{5} \\ \\ \frac{55}{100}~~if~~we~~divide~~both~~of~~side~~with~~5~= \frac{11}{20} \\ \\ \frac{2}{5} + \frac{11}{20} \\ \\ \frac{2.4+11}{20} =\boxed{\frac{19}{20}}$
