Question

What is the result when fractions $\frac{13}{2}$ and $\frac{7}{2}$ are added?

• A. $\frac{25}{2}$
• B. $\frac{15}{2}$
• C. $\frac{20}{2}$
• D. $\frac{23}{2}$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $\frac{20}{2}$

We have to find:
$\frac{13}{2}+\frac{7}{2}$

They are like fractions. Thus, the result will also have 2 as denominator.

$\frac{13}{2}+\frac{7}{2}=\frac{13+7}{2}$
$=\frac{20}{2}$
