Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1/5 + 1/5 = 2/5

1/7 + 1/7 = 2/7

1/3 + 1/3 = 2/3

There are an infinite number of these fractions. They must be 1 and 1 in the numerator, and the denominator must be relatively prime  to 2. The examples I have picked are prime in the denominator, but the rule is not without many exceptions. For example

1/9 + 1/9 = 2/9

I don't think you can pick an even denominator because it will reduce when put with two.  Oh wait 2/18 + 2/18 = 4/18 = 2/9 But these could be reduced before adding. Still, it might count. It depends on who is marking the question.

What about an odd and even denominator?

1/9 + 1/18 = 3/18 = 1/6  There must be something that works, but I can't come up with an example.

Two friends, Alejandro and Mia, agreed to split the check at a restaurant. Alejandro ordered $12 worth of food and Mia ordered $
kvasek [131]

Cost of Alejandro's food = $12

Tip paid by Alejandro = 20% of his bill = 20% of 12 = 2.4

Cost of Mia's food = $18

Tip paid by Mia = 15% of his bill = 15% of 18 = 2.7

Total Tip Paid = 2.4+2.7 = 5.1

Total Check Amount = 12 + 18 = 30

Total tip paid by Alejandro and Mia is r% of the total check amount.

So, we need to determine what % of 30 is equal to 5.1%

⇒ r% × 30 = 5.1

⇒ r% = 5.1 / 30

⇒ r% = 17%

Hence, r is 17%
