Homework Help: 7th grade math ms. sue please help

Posted by Delilah on Monday, October 1, 2012 at 5:19pm.

If Fran’s fudge recipe calls for 2 and 1/2 cups of sugar and she increases it by 2/5 of a cup, how much sugar does she use?

a. 2 2/10
b. 2 3/7
c. 2 4/9
d. 2 9/10

is the answer d because 2 1/2 plus 2/5 equals 2 9/10?
If it is incorrect, then why?
Thanks!
