Question

Francisco makes garlic bread with 1/6 pound of garlic 2/5 pound of butter. How much garlic and butter are on the bread?

Answer 1

Answer:

17/30 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the amount of garlic and butter on the bread we add them together

garlic + butter

1/6 lbs + 2/5 lbs

we need to get a common denominator, which is 30

1/6 * 5/5 = 5 /30

2/5 * 6/6 = 12/30

1/6 + 2/5 =

5/30 + 12/30

17/30 lbs
