Sagot :

The total number of boxes is the sum of all boxes each day

The total number of boxes he filled in the five days is [tex]23 \frac 18[/tex]

How to determine the total number of box

The box each day is given as:

  • Monday 4 7/8
  • Tuesday 5 3/4
  • Wednesday 4 7/2
  • Thursday 4 3/8
  • Friday 5/8

So, the total number of boxes is:

[tex]Total = 4\frac 78 + 5\frac 34 + 4\frac 72 + 4\frac 38 + \frac 58[/tex]

Add the fractions

[tex]Total = 23 \frac 18[/tex]

Hence, the total number of boxes he filled in the five days is [tex]23 \frac 18[/tex]
