One truck delivered 3 4/5 tons of potatoes to a warehouse while another truck delivered 1/2 ton less. How many tons of potatoes did the two trucks deliver altogether?

Respuesta :

3 4/5 + (3 4/5 - 1/2) =
19/5 + (19/5 - 1/2) =
19/5 + (38/10 - 5/10) =
19/5 + 33/10 =
38/10 + 33/10 =
71/10 which equals 7 1/10 tons <==
7 1/10 tons I know this because 3 4/5 + 3 3/10 = equal 7 1/10

3 3/10 is a half a ton less than 3 4/5 tons
