Best Answer

the answer is 7/8

To do this, times make the denominators the same in the first fraction, (as shown below)

1/4 times both parts of the fraction by 2 which equals 2/8.

So we now have 2/8 + 5/8 and by adding the top half of the fractions together we get 7/8!

This is an ambiguous question. You should state whether the problem is (1+4)/5, or 1 + 4/5 since these yield entirely different answers. If you add 1 and 4, the answer is 5. 5/5 is one. And one is 100%. 1 4/5 is 180%
