Lisle bought 38 pounds of red grapes and 512 pound of green grapes how many pounds of Grapes did he buy

19/24

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are informed that Lisle bought 3/8 pounds of red grapes and 5/12 pound of green grapes

✓3/8 pounds of red grapes and 5//12

✓First thing to do is to add the fractions

But we need " the least common denominator" because their denominator are not the same, we need to make it the same...

✓ The two denominator ( 8 and 12) are both factor of 24, therefore their "least common denominator" is 24.

✓To make 3/8 pounds of red grapes has a denominator of 24, we multiply both the denominator & numerator with factor of 3.

3/8 = (3×3)/(8×3)=9/24

✓To make 5/12 pounds of green grapes has a denominator of 24, we multiply both the denominator & numerator with factor of 2.

5/12= (5×2)/(12×2)= 10/24

✓ we can see they both have the same denominator, then we can now "add both denominators"

(9+10)=19

✓ Then place the addition of the denominators on the least common denominator.

= 19/24.

Therefore, he bought 19/24 of grapes
