Carly made a beaded necklace. 4/18 of the beads are blue and 1/3 of the beads are green. Use benchmark fractions to estimate about what fraction of the beads in the necklace are blue or green. Explain

Respuesta :

Answer:

Blue and green beads make up 5/9 of the necklace.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, add the two fractions together.

1/3 + 4/18

But make sure to give common denominators first

6/18 + 4/18

10/18

And simplify by dividing both by 2.

5/9
