Answer:

In the white box with the "?" PUT 40

final answer: 13/20

Step-by-step explanation:

4/10 + 25/100

can only be added if you find a common denominator. That is the step being asked for on your screen. 4/10 is the same as 40/100.

4/10 + 25/100

= 40/100 + 25/100

Keep the bottom, add the tops.

= (40+25)/100

= 65/100

always simplify when possible. 5 goes into both 65 and also 100

65/100

= 13/20

13/20 of Shira's garden is planted with carrots and potatoes.
