Question

served a total of 6/10 of a loaf of wheat bread and 3 4/5 loaves were served in all?ction or as a whole or mixed number.

Explanation:

Step1: Convert fractions to have common denominator

First, simplify $\frac{6}{10}$ to $\frac{3}{5}$. Now we need to add $\frac{3}{5}$ and $3\frac{4}{5}$.

Step2: Add the fractions and the whole number

Add the fractional parts: $\frac{3}{5}+\frac{4}{5}=\frac{7}{5}$. Convert $\frac{7}{5}$ to a mixed number: $1\frac{2}{5}$. Then add the whole number part: $3 + 1\frac{2}{5}=4\frac{2}{5}$.
Alternatively, we can convert $3\frac{4}{5}$ to an improper fraction: $3\frac{4}{5}=\frac{3\times5 + 4}{5}=\frac{19}{5}$, and $\frac{6}{10}=\frac{3}{5}=\frac{3}{5}$. Then add $\frac{3}{5}+\frac{19}{5}=\frac{22}{5}=4\frac{2}{5}$.

Answer:

$4\frac{2}{5}$
