Question

A recipe called for 5/9 cup of chopped lettuce and 5/6 cup of diced lettuce. In total, how many cups of lettuce did the recipe call for?

Answer 1

1 7/18

Explanation:

5/9 + 5/6 write all numerators above the least common denominator which is 18.

10+15/18 then you add the numerators which will make it 25/18 which alternative form will be 1 7/18, or in decimal 1.38
