Fishes that were orange = 2/10

Fishes that were striped = 5/100

Now to get the fraction of fishes that are orange or striped is to simply add them up
2/10 + 5/100

Make the denominators equal
2 x 10/10 x 10 = 20/100

20/100 + 5/100 = 25/100

Correct option - 25/100

Hope This Helps You!

Orange fishes = 2/10
Striped fishes = 5/100

Fishes that are orange or striped = 2/10 + 5/100

LCM of 10,100 = 100

2 x 10/10x 10 = 20/100

20/100 + 5/100= 25/100

So the answer is = c) 25/100



Hope this helps
