First you need to make the denominators equivalent so you can add them.
[tex] \frac{2}{5} [/tex] × [tex] \frac{4}{4} [/tex]=[tex] \frac{8}{20} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{1}{4} [/tex] × [tex] \frac{5}{5} [/tex]=[tex] \frac{5}{20} [/tex]

Then you can add them together
[tex] \frac{8}{20} [/tex] + [tex] \frac{5}{20} [/tex]
=[tex] \frac{13}{20} [/tex]

They walked [tex] \frac{13}{20} [/tex] of a mile altogether

Total distance cover by both is 13/20 miles

Given that:

Distance cover by Ben = 2/5 miles

Distance cover by Tonya = 1/4 miles

Find:

Total distance cover by both

Computation:

Total distance cover by both = Distance cover by Ben + Distance cover by Tonya

[tex]Total \ distance\ cover\ by\ both = \frac{2}{5} + \frac{1}{4} \\\\Total \ distance\ cover\ by\ both = \frac{8 + 5}{20} \\\\Total \ distance\ cover\ by\ both = \frac{13}{20} \\[/tex]
