Question

James had 5 dozen marbles. He gave 1/5 of

them to his friend Mark and 1/5 of them to his
friend Michael. What fraction of marbles did he
give away?


A. 1/5
B. 2/5
C. 3/5
D. 4/5

Answer 1

The answer is B(2/5), this is because 1/5 plus 1/5 equals 2/5 which is the amount of marbles given away.

Answer 2

The answer is going to be: B)2/5 because you add 1+1=2 and since the denominators are the same u keep 5, and it can't be simplified
