Question

Determine the mixed number that correctly adds 3/5, 5/8, and 15/32

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer of the addition of 3/5, 5/8 and 15/32 is 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

3/5 + 5/8 + 15/32

We find the LCm of the denominators, that is, 5, 8 and 32

LCM = 5*32 = 160

[(160/5 + 3) + (160/8 + 5) + (160/32 + 15)]/160

[(32+3) + (20+5) + (5+15)]/160

[35+25+20]/160

80/160 = 1/2
