Question

Sam read 1/2 of a book on Monday and 1/3 of a book on Tuesday what fraction of the book he read in all
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Monday = 1/2th of book

Tuesday= 1/3th of book

Monday + Tuesday

In 2 days he read

1/2 + 1/3 = 5/6

Answer 2

Given,

Part he read on Monday =  $\sf{\dfrac{1}{2}}$

Part he read on Tuesday =  $\sf{\dfrac{1}{3}}$

$\boxed{\bold{\sf{Part \ he \ read \ in \ all = Part \ he \ read \ on \ Monday+Part \ he \ read \ on \ Tuesday}}}$

$\sf{\implies Part \ he \ read \ in \ all = \dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac{1}{3}}$

$\sf{\implies Part \ he \ read \ in \ all = \dfrac{3+2}{2\times 3}}$

$\sf{\implies Part \ he \ read \ in \ all = \dfrac{5}{6}}$

$\boxed{\bold{\sf{\therefore Part \ he \ read \ in \ all = \dfrac{5}{6}}}}$
