Ms. Lee bought 6 1/2 m of red lace and 2/5 m of blue lace
How many metres of lace did she buy in all?
Answer:
[tex] \sf{} 6\frac{9}{10} \\ [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\\ \sf{} = 6 \frac{1}{2} + \frac{2}{5} [/tex]
[tex]\\ \sf{} =6 \frac{1 \times 5}{2 \times 5} + \frac{2 \times 2}{5 \times 2} [/tex]
[tex]\\ \sf{} =6 \frac{5}{10} + \frac{4}{10} [/tex]
[tex]\\ \sf{} =6 \frac{5 + 4}{10} [/tex]
[tex]\\ \huge \boxed{\sf{} =6 \frac{9}{10}} \\ \\ \\ \\ [/tex]
