1+1/5
You asked:
Evaluate the expression: \(1 + \frac{1}{5}\)
MathBot Answer:
\[ 1 + \frac{1}{5} = \frac{6}{5} = 1.2 \]
The sum can be computed by rewriting each term over a common denominator, where the least common denominator of \(\frac{1}{1}\) and \(\frac{1}{5}\) is \(5\). \[ \begin{aligned} 1 + \frac{1}{5} &= \frac{1 \cdot 5}{1 \cdot 5} + \frac{1 \cdot 1}{5 \cdot 1} \\ &= \frac{5 + 1}{5} \\ &= \frac{6}{5} \end{aligned} \]
