Simphiwe watered half of his vegetable garden on monday and 3/5 of the garden on tuesday what fraction did he water altogether
To find the total fraction of the garden that Simphiwe watered altogether, we need to add the fractions from Monday and Tuesday.
On Monday, he watered half of the garden, which is 1/2.
On Tuesday, he watered 3/5 of the garden.
To add these fractions, we need to find a common denominator. The least common denominator between 2 and 5 is 10.
1/2 = 5/10
3/5 = 6/10
Now we can add the fractions:
1/2 + 3/5 = 5/10 + 6/10 = 11/10
Therefore, Simphiwe watered a total of 11/10 of the vegetable garden altogether.
