Answer 1

Explanation:

`\bf \underline{Given-} \\`

`\sf{Mother \: bought \: 4 (1)/(3) \: kilograms \: of \: bananas \: and } \\ \sf{ 4 (4)/(5) \: kilograms \: of \: oranges \: for \: her \: children.} \\`

`\bf \underline{To \: find-} \\`

`\sf \: Total\:kilograms \: of \: fruits \: did \: she \: buy \: in \: all \: ? \\`

`\bf \underline{Solution-} \\`

`\sf{Total \: weight \: of \: fruits = \bigg(4 (1)/(3) + 4 (4)/(5) \bigg)Kg} \\`

`\sf{ = \bigg((13)/(3) + (80)/(5) \bigg)Kg} \\`

Take LCM of 3 & 5 is 15.

`\sf{ = \bigg( (65 + 240)/(15) \bigg)Kg} \\`

`\sf{ = (305)/(15) \: Kg} \\`

`\sf{ =2 (5)/(15) \: Kg} \\`
