Aldo made a shirt using 1/5 meters of yellow fabric and 2/3 meters of red fabric. How many meters of fabric did he use in all? Write your answer as a fraction in simplest form.

Aldo's shirt was made of 13/15 meters of fabric.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to add these fractions. However, in order to do so, we need to find the LCM, which in this case, is 15.

1/5 + 2/3 =

3/15 + 10/15 =

13/15

This fraction is also written in simplest form. Therefore, Aldo's shirt was made of 13/15 meters of fabric.

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.

step-by-step explanation:

notice that the equation you are given has -2 (negative 2) on the right side, not 2. when you subtract 5 from a number n, you are finding the difference between the number and 5.

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.

75

step-by-step explanation:

you do x-29=46 (the number of cantaloupes sold)

in order to find x, you have to find what minus 29 equals 46, meaning you'd have to add 29 to 46.

29+46=75

if you replace x with 75, the equation looks like:

75-29=46

x=75
