Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{2}{7}+\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
LCD = 28
[tex]\frac{2}{7}+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{2*4+1*7}{28}\\\\=\frac{8+7}{28}\\\\=\frac{15}{28}\\[/tex]
= 0.535 {Round off to tenth}
= 0.5
[tex]\frac{5}{6}+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{5*4-1*6}{24}\\\\=\frac{20-6}{24}\\\\=\frac{14}{24}\\\\=\frac{7}{12}\\[/tex]
= 0.583 {Round off to tenth}
= 0.6
So 2/7 +1/4 is closer to 1/2
