Afamily spends 1/10 of its annual income for housing, 1/4 for food and clothing, 1/5 for general expenses, and 2/15 for entertainment. what fractional part of their income is spent on these items altogether?

a. 1/7
b. 41/60
c. 6/41
d. 11

First you have to set the fractions with an equal denominator
hint: numerator/denominator
all of the denominators go into sixty

1/10=6/60
1/4=15/60
1/5=12/60
2/15=8/60

then you will have to add the numerators
(6+15+12+8)/60 = 41/60
simplify if possible but it's not necessary for this one

You can use a calculater and divide the minutes by the $$, hope that you
