Answer:
Choice C, 1 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
There are two ways you can go about this problem.
1. Convert 0.65 into a fraction. This will give us 13/20 when simplified.
2. You can add this to 3/5 by getting a common denominator. In this case, 12/20.
3. Add 13/20 and 12/20 to get 25/20.
4. Take the 20 out of the numerator to get 1 5/20 (Hopefully that made sense, if not let me know). Reduce the 5/20 to 1/4.
5. This gives us an answer of 1 1/4.
The other way:
1. Convert 3/5 to a decimal. This gives us 0.6.
2. Add it to 0.65, giving us 1.25
3. Convert 1.25 into a fraction, which is 1 1/4
Hope this helped!
