Answer:
The answer is
2 to 1 significant figure
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]1 \frac{2}{5} + \frac{3}{4} [/tex]
To solve the question first convert the mixed fraction to an improper fraction
That's
[tex]1 \frac{2}{5} = \frac{7}{5} [/tex]
So we have
[tex] \frac{7}{5} + \frac{3}{4} [/tex]
Find the LCM of the fractions
The LCM of 5 and 4 is 20
That's
[tex] \frac{7}{5} + \frac{3}{4} = \frac{7(4) + 3(5)}{20} = \frac{28 + 15}{20} [/tex]
[tex] = \frac{43}{20} [/tex]
= 2.15
We have the final answer as
2 to 1 significant figure
Hope this helps you
