Question

\(\dfrac{1}{10}+\dfrac{17}{20}+\dfrac{3}{10}+\dfrac{2}{20}+\dfrac{6}{10}+\dfrac{1}{20}\)

Answer 1

\(\dfrac{1}{10}+\dfrac{17}{20}+\dfrac{3}{10}+\dfrac{2}{20}+\dfrac{6}{10}+\dfrac{1}{20}\)

= \(\left(\dfrac{1}{10}+\dfrac{3}{10}+\dfrac{6}{10}\right)+\left(\dfrac{17}{20}+\dfrac{2}{20}+\dfrac{1}{20}\right)\)

= 1 + 1 = 2

Answer 2

= ( 1/10 + 3/10 + 6/10 ) + ( 17/20 + 2/20 + 1/20 )                                      = 1+1                                                                                                        = 2
