Question

next round! follow the three clues to find a hidden treasure. write each answer as a mixed number. clue 3: start at $3\frac{4}{5}$ and add $\frac{3}{5}$. $3\frac{4}{5}+\frac{3}{5}=\boxed{?}\frac{\boxed{?}}{5}$

Explanation:

Step1: Add the fractions

First, add the fractional parts of the mixed number and the fraction. The mixed number is \( 3\frac{4}{5} \) and we are adding \( \frac{3}{5} \). So, add the numerators of the fractions: \( \frac{4}{5} + \frac{3}{5} = \frac{4 + 3}{5} = \frac{7}{5} \).

Step2: Convert improper fraction to mixed number

Now, \( \frac{7}{5} \) is an improper fraction. Convert it to a mixed number: \( \frac{7}{5} = 1\frac{2}{5} \).

Step3: Add the whole number parts

Add the whole number part of the original mixed number (which is 3) to the whole number part from the converted improper fraction (which is 1). So, \( 3 + 1 = 4 \).

Step4: Combine the results

Now, combine the whole number and the remaining fraction: \( 4 + \frac{2}{5} = 4\frac{2}{5} \).

Answer:

\( 4\frac{2}{5} \) (So the first box is 4, the numerator box is 2, and the denominator is 5 as given.)
