Example 1
Denny walked \(\frac{3}{10}\) mile to the post office. Then he walked \(\frac{5}{100}\) mile to the grocery store. How far did he walk in all? Write the answer as a fraction with a denominator of 100 and as a decimal.
Use a model to show \(\frac{3}{10}\) + \(\frac{5}{100}\).
1. Write \(\frac{3}{10}\) as a fraction with a denominator of 100.
The decimal models show that \(\frac{3}{10}\) = \(\frac{30}{100}\).
2. Add like fractions.
3. Write the sum as a decimal.
Think of \(\frac{35}{100}\) as thirty-five hundredths. So, \(\frac{35}{100}\) = 0.35.
So, \(\frac{3}{10}\) + \(\frac{5}{100}\) = \(\frac{35}{100}\), or _______________.
Denny walked \(\frac{35}{100}\), or 0.35, mile in all.
Answer: In order to make the denominators of both fractions same for addition, multiply and divide \(\frac{3}{10}\) by 10. Then, it becomes \(\frac{30}{100}\)
Now, \(\frac{30}{100}\) + \(\frac{5}{100}\) = \(\frac{35}{100}\)
\(\frac{35}{100}\) = 0.35 in decimal
Example 2
Find \(\frac{4}{10}\) + \(\frac{22}{100}\). Write the sum as a fraction with a denominator of 100 and as a decimal.
1. Write \(\frac{4}{10}\) as a fraction with a denominator of 100.
The decimal models show that \(\frac{4}{10}\) = \(\frac{40}{100}\).
2. Add like fractions.
3. Write the sum as a decimal.

In Example 2, why was \(\frac{4}{10}\) written as \(\frac{40}{100}\)?
Answer: For calculating sum of two fractions, we need like fractions. In order to make the denominators of both fractions same for addition, multiply and divide \(\frac{4}{10}\) by 10. Then, it becomes \(\frac{40}{100}\). Now, as the denominators are same, we can simply perform addition of numerators.

Question 15.
Mathematical PRACTICE Use Algebra Find the unknown in the number sentence 
Answer: 11
\(\frac{3}{10}\) + \(\frac{?}{100}\) = \(\frac{41}{100}\)
\(\frac{?}{100}\) = \(\frac{41}{100}\) – \(\frac{3}{10}\)
Make sure all the values in the denominators are same. In order to make the denominators same for calculation, represent \(\frac{3}{10}\) in the form of denominator 100 by multiplying and dividing it with 10. Then, it becomes \(\frac{30}{100}\)
Now, replace \(\frac{3}{10}\) with \(\frac{30}{100}\) in the equation for calculation
\(\frac{?}{100}\) = \(\frac{41}{100}\) – \(\frac{30}{100}\)
= \(\frac{41 – 30}{100}\)
= \(\frac{11}{100}\)
Therefore, the missing number is 11 in the given equation.
