Answer:

10:3

Step-by-step explanation:

Make 2 1/2 an improper fraction, you will get 5/2. You dont have to do anything to the 3/4.

For you to find the ratio of an fraction, you have to take the numerator but the denominator has to be the same.

So make 5/2 to a 10/4.

Take the numerator 10 & 3.

Your answer will be 10:3

Explain how you can use base ten blocks to find 1.54+ 2.37

solong [7]

0.00

*First column to your left - ones column (1)
*Column just after decimal place, in the middle - tenths column (1/10)
*Column to the far right - hundredths column (1/100)

The only numbers that can go in these columns are 0-9.

-------------

1.54 + 2.37

= (1 + 5/10 + 4/100) + (2 + 3/10 + 7/100)

= 1 + 5/10 + 4/100 + 2 + 3/10 + 7/100

= 3 + 8/10 + 11/100

= 3 + 8/10 + (10/100 + 1/100)

= 3 + 8/10 + (1/10 + 1/100)

= 3 + 8/10 + 1/10 + 1/100

= 3 + 9/10 + 1/100

= 3.91
