Davis is building a wooden bench. He has 2 3/5feet of lumber in his garage and buys 8 1/2feet of lumber at the store. How many total feet of lumber does he now have?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

2 3/5 + 8 1/2

= 2 + 8  + 3/5 + 1/2

= 10 + 3/5 + 1/2

The LCM of 5 and 2 is 10 so we get:

10 + 6/10 + 5/10

= 10 + 11/10

= 10 + 1 1/10

= 11 1/10 feet.
