Question

Anya has a pink ribbon and a purple ribbon. The pink ribbon is 6 ⅕ inches long. The purple ribbon is 8 ²⁄₁₀ inches. How much ribbon does she have? I need help with this answer please-

A. 14 ⅗
B. 14 ⁴⁄₁₀
C. 2 ⅕
D. 14 ⅖

Answer 1

B. 14 ⁴⁄₁₀

Explanation:

I say its b because all u have to do it multiply 6 ⅕ but not the 6, just the 1 and the 5, just multiply by two and both fractions will have the same total amount which is 10 and 6 ⅕ will turn to 6 with 2/10 so all u have to do now is add that fraction to 8 ²⁄₁₀
