An adult short-eared owl weighed 12 pound. A baby short-eared owl weighed 29 pound. What was the total weight of the two owls? A. 1118pound B. 119pounds C. 311pound

Respuesta :

Answer: 13 / 18 pounds

Explanation:

An adult short-eared owl weighed 1/2 pound while a baby short-eared owl weighed 2/9 pound.

The total weight of the two owls will be the addition of both of their weights. This will be:

= 1/2 + 2/9

Note that the LCM of 2 and 9 is 18

= 9/18 + 4/18

= 13/18

Therefore, the answer is 13/18 pounds.
