Mika is making his cinnamon and sugar mixture to sprinkle on toast
His recipe uses 1/8 cup of cinnamon and half a cup of sugar find 1/8+1/2 and interpret this sum in the context of the problem
To find 1/8 + 1/2, we need to find a common denominator, which in this case is 8. So, we rewrite 1/2 as 4/8.
1/8 + 4/8 = 5/8.
Therefore, Mika's cinnamon and sugar mixture consists of a total of 5/8 cups when combined.
To find the sum of 1/8 and 1/2, we need to have a common denominator. The common denominator for 1/8 and 1/2 is 8.
1/8 + 1/2 = 1/8 + 4/8 = 5/8
In the context of the problem, the sum 5/8 represents the total amount of the cinnamon and sugar mixture Mika needs to make for sprinkling on toast.
To find the sum of 1/8 and 1/2, you need to find a common denominator. In this case, the common denominator is 8.
Converting 1/2 to have a denominator of 8:
1/2 * 4/4 = 4/8
Now you can add the fractions:
1/8 + 4/8 = (1 + 4) / 8 = 5/8
In the context of the problem, 1/8 + 1/2 equals 5/8. This means that Mika needs to mix 5/8 cup of the cinnamon and sugar mixture to sprinkle on the toast.
