Question

Add and Simplify 3/4 + 1/10

Answer 1

To add to rational numbers you can follow the next steps:

`\begin{gathered} (3)/(4)+(1)/(10)=(3*10+4*1)/(4*10) \\ \Rightarrow(30+4)/(40)=(34)/(40) \end{gathered}`

Now, to simplify you can start by dividing both numbers by 2:

`(34/2)/(40/2)=(17)/(20)`

As 17 is a prime number, this is the final result: 17/20.
