for a class gardening project 1/3 of mrs gordon's students planted marigolds and 1/2 planted tulips what fraction of the class planted either marigolds or tulips
Get them to have a common denominator so you can add them (1/3)×2= 2/6 and (1/2)×3= 3/6 Add them together (2/6)+ (3/6)= 5/6 So 5/6 of the class planted either marigolds or tulips and 1/6 of the class planted neither
