Question
Evaluate 
.
Hint:
To add two or more fractions, we take LCM of the denominator, divide the LCM by the denominator and multiply the values obtained with the respective numerator.
The correct answer is:
We have to add, 1/5 + 3/5 + 4/5
LCM of 5, 5 and 5 is 5.
Hence, the correct option is (b)
Since, the denominator is same, So we simply add the numbers in the numerator and write the result in the numerator and the common denominator as the denominator of the result.
