Martha was making apple tarts. She added 1/2 cup of sugar in the beginning. Later, she added another 1/4 cup of sugar. Martha estimated that she added about 1/6 cup of sugar in all. Is Martha's estimate reasonable?

Respuesta :

Answer: her answer is NOT reasonable because 1/2 is bigger that 1/6. The real addition to 1/2 and 1/4 is 3/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2 is 2/4 and 1/4 stays the same because it is the common denominator

Add them and you get 3/4
