Answer 1

1/5 allowance she spend .

Answer 2

Answer:

5/6

to find the total, we add

so, 1/3+1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

1 Find the Least Common Denominator (LCD) of 1/2 and 1/3

. In other words, find the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 2,32,3.

LCD = 6

2 Make the denominators the same as the LCD.

1×3/2×3 + 1×2/3×2

3 Simplify. Denominators are now the same.

3/6+2/6

4 Join the denominators.

3+2/6

5 Simplify.

5/6

Done!
