Let's reduce: $\frac{4}{5}+\frac{1}{2}$

ⓘ To add fractions, put them over the same denominator, then add the numerators. We choose $10$, the least common multiple of $5$ and $2$. Multiplying the numerator and the denominator by the same number does not change the fraction: $\frac{4}{5}+\frac{1}{2}$ = $\frac{4\times 2}{5\times 2}+\frac{1\times 5}{2\times 5}$ = $\frac{4\times 2+1\times 5}{5\times 2}$ = $\frac{4\times 2+5}{5\times 2}$

$\frac{4\times 2+5}{5\times 2}$

ⓘ Multiplications are done before additions and subtractions: $4\times 2$ = $8$

ⅰ $5\times 2$ = $10$

$\frac{8+5}{10}$

ⓘ The numerator and the denominator are computed before the division: $8+5$ = $13$

▶Simplified form:   $\frac{13}{10}$

The numeric value of: $\frac{13}{10}$ is:

▷ $1.3$
