Math Problem Statement

Which is the sum of 2/10 + 6/10?

Solution

The question asks for the sum of 210\frac{2}{10} and 610\frac{6}{10}.

Solution:

  1. Both fractions have the same denominator (1010), so we can directly add their numerators: 210+610=2+610=810.\frac{2}{10} + \frac{6}{10} = \frac{2 + 6}{10} = \frac{8}{10}.

  2. The answer is 810\frac{8}{10}, which matches one of the options.
