Hayley Baked A Cheescake. She used 5/8 pound cream cheese, 4/16 pound sugar, and 6/8 pound peaches. How much did the ingredients weigh altogether?
Accepted Solution
A:
8 is a factor of 16, so you would multiply the numerator and denominator of 5/8 and 6/8 by 2. this would be 10/16 and 12/8. add all of the numbers together = 10+12+4 which equals 26. it’d be 26/16 or 1 and 10/16.
