Answer:
The teacher paints 17/30 of the wall.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that:
She paints 2/5 of the wall blue.
She paints 1/6 of the wall green.
An art teacher paints part of a wall in her class room. She paint 2/5 of the wall blue and the bottom 1/6 of the wall green. She dose not paint the rest of the wall what fraction of the wall dose the teacher paint?
The smalles common multiplier between 5 and 6 is 30. So
[tex]\frac{2}{5} + \frac{1}{6} = \frac{6*2 + 5*1}{30} = \frac{17}{30}[/tex]
The teacher paints 17/30 of the wall.
