Micha is making a cinnamon and sugar mixture to sprinkle on toast. His recipe uses 1/8 cup of cinnamon, and1/2 cup of sugar, find 1/8 + 1/2 and interpret this some in the context of the problem
To find 1/8 + 1/2, first, we need to find a common denominator.
The denominators are already 8 and 2, so we don't need to convert them.
Adding the numerators: 1 + 4 = 5
Therefore, 1/8 + 1/2 = 5/8.
In the context of the problem, 5/8 represents the total amount of the cinnamon and sugar mixture that Micha has made for sprinkling on toast.
To find the sum of 1/8 and 1/2, we need to have a common denominator. The common denominator of 8 and 2 is also 8.
Now, let's convert 1/2 to the same denominator:
1/2 = 4/8
Now that we have the same denominator, we can add them:
1/8 + 4/8 = 5/8
In the context of the problem, 1/8 + 1/2 = 5/8 means that Micha would need a total of 5/8 cup of cinnamon and sugar mixture for sprinkling on the toast.
