Putting parts together

Each puzzle is 1 whole. Add to find how much of the puzzle is done when parts are joined.

1.
Grandpa finished 3/10 of the ocean puzzle. Then Lily finished another 4/10 of the same puzzle. The bar shows Grandpa's part.


3/10 + 4/10 =  /10 of the puzzle is done.

2.
Amir put together 2/8 of a puzzle's border. Then he put together 3/8 more of the same border. Which equation shows how much of the border is done?
  • A. 2/8 + 3/8 = 5/16
  • B. 3/8 − 2/8 = 1/8
  • C. 2/8 + 3/8 = 5/8
  • D. 2/8 + 3/8 = 6/8
3.
A round puzzle has 6 equal sections. Mom finished 1/6 of it, Theo finished 2/6, and Ana finished 2/6. You may shade the circle to help.
