2/5 is equivalent to 4/10 so at the end of February 4/10 was used up

Answer: 7 1/30
Step-by-step explanation:
Tina loves to read. Before breakfast, she read 2 1/2 pages, at lunch she read 3 1/5 pages, and after dinner she read 1 1/3 pages. To find the total, we add all the pages together. This will be:
2 1/2 + 3 1/5 + 1 1/3
The LCM of 2, 5 and 3 is 30.
= 2 15/30 + 3 6/30 + 1 10/30
= 6 31/30
= 7 1/30.
