We can write this as 1 + 2/5
= 5/5 + 2/5 (1 is the same as 5/5)
= 7/5 or 1 2/5
Best of Luck!
Answer:
1 2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
2 over 5= 2/5
1 whole= 1/1
first you should get the two fractions to have a common denominator
the common denominator is 5
1/1 times 5/5= 5/5
now add 2/5 and 5/5
2/5+ 5/5= 7/5 or as mixed number it will be 1 2/5
Another way to do this is:
you could just write this as mixed fraction
think that 2/5 is 0 2/5
just add the 1 to 0, so the answer is 1 2/5
