Nigel has 2 dogs. One eats 2 1/2 pounds of food each week. The other eats 1 3/8 pounds each week. Together how much food do the dogs eat in a week

Sagot :

Answer:  3 & 7/8  pounds

whole part = 3

fractional part = 7/8

===========================================================

Explanation:

1/2 = 4/8

So the mixed number 2 & 1/2 is the same as 2 & 4/8

Adding on 1 & 3/8 will mean the fractional portions add to 4/8+3/8 = 7/8 and the whole number portions add to 2+1 = 3

Overall, the total amount eaten is 3 & 7/8 pounds
