Answer:
[tex]\dfrac{11}{8}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
A restaurant served a total of 1/2 of a loaf of wheat bread and 7/8 of a loaf of white bread.
We need to find how many loaves were served in all. It is equal to the sum of the fraction of 1/2 and 7/8.
Sum of these two fractions :
[tex]\dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac{7}{8}\\\\=\dfrac{4+7}{8}\\\\=\dfrac{11}{8}[/tex]
So, a total of 11/8 were served in all.
