Greta Hawkins · Answer 1

3.5 pounds + 4.8 pounds = 8.3 pounds

Kathy Morales · Answer 2

The market sells 8 3/10 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, add together the whole numbers

3 + 4 = 7

Now add together the fractions using common denominators.

1/2 + 4/5

5/10 + 8/10 = 13/10 OR 1 and 3/10

Now add the two values together.

7 + 1 3/10 = 8 3/10
