Question

Use an equivalent fraction to find the sum of 4/10 + 28/100

Answer 1

Hi there!

4/10 = (4*10)/(10*10) = 40/100

40/100 + 28/100 = 68/100

68/100 = 34/50 = 17/25

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

$\dfrac{4}{10} + \dfrac{28}{100} = \dfrac{4 \times 10 }{10 \times 10} + \dfrac{28}{100} = \dfrac{40}{100} + \dfrac{28}{100} = \dfrac{40+28}{100} = \dfrac{68}{100} =\dfrac{68 \div 4}{100 \div 4}= \dfrac{17}{25}$
