2 What is the sum of \( \frac{2}{10}+\frac{6}{100} ? \)

To find the sum of \( \frac{2}{10} + \frac{6}{100} \), we first convert both fractions to have a common denominator. The denominator of \( \frac{2}{10} \) can be multiplied by 10 to match the denominator of \( \frac{6}{100} \): \[ \frac{2}{10} = \frac{2 \times 10}{10 \times 10} = \frac{20}{100} \] Now, we can add the two fractions: \[ \frac{20}{100} + \frac{6}{100} = \frac{20 + 6}{100} = \frac{26}{100} \] We can simplify \( \frac{26}{100} \) by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 2: \[ \frac{26 \div 2}{100 \div 2} = \frac{13}{50} \] Thus, the sum of \( \frac{2}{10} + \frac{6}{100} \) is \( \frac{13}{50} \).
