How do you write 10/30 in lowest terms?
- A.
9-Mar
- B.
3-Jan
- C.
6-Feb

- D.
11000
Correct Answer
A. 11110Explanation
The correct answer is 11110. To find the sum of 2222 and 8888, we add the digits in each place value starting from the right. In the ones place, 2+8=10, so we write down 0 and carry over 1. In the tens place, 2+8+1=11, so we write down 1 and carry over 1 again. In the hundreds place, 2+8+1=11, so we write down 1 and carry over 1 once more. Finally, in the thousands place, 2+8+1=11, so we write down 1 and carry over 1 for the last time. Thus, the sum is 11110.Rate this question:
