To find the fraction that represents the dunk tanks and games sections combined, we need to add the fractions 1/10 and 4/10 together.

First, let's convert both fractions to have the same denominator. In this case, we can use the denominator of 10.

1/10 is already in the correct format, so we don't need to make any changes to it.

To change 4/10 to a fraction with a denominator of 10, we can multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 2. This gives us 8/20.

Now that we have both fractions with the same denominator, we can add them:

1/10 + 8/20 = (2/20) + (8/20) = 10/20.

However, we can simplify this fraction by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 10. This gives us:

10/20 = (10 ÷ 10) / (20 ÷ 10) = 1/2.

Therefore, the fraction representing the dunk tanks and games sections combined is 1/2.
