The two hundred grids represent \(\frac{6}{10}\) and \(\frac{7}{100}\). Find the sum. Write it as a fraction in hundredths and as a decimal.
Hints
- Use the grids to see how many hundredths each addend represents.
- Rename the tenths as hundredths before adding.
- Read the final number of hundredths as a decimal.
Solution
1. Rename \(\frac{6}{10}\) as \(\frac{60}{100}\).
2. Add: \(\frac{60}{100}+\frac{7}{100}=\frac{67}{100}\).
3. The decimal form of \(\frac{67}{100}\) is \(0.67\).
Answer
