    Preeti bought a bunch of bananas weighing. \[\frac{1}{4}\text{kg}\] and a papaya weighing \[\frac{3}{8}\text{ kg}\] heavier. What is the total mass of the fruits she bought?

    A)  \[\frac{7}{8}\text{ kg}\]                    

    B)  \[\frac{5}{8}\text{ kg}\]        

    C)    \[\frac{5}{7}\text{ kg}\]        

    D)    \[\frac{7}{16}\text{ kg}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Mass of bananas \[=\frac{1}{4}\text{ kg}\] Mass of papaya \[=\left( \frac{1}{4}+\frac{3}{8} \right)\text{ kg =}\frac{5}{8}\text{ kg}\] \[\therefore \] Total mass of the fruits \[=\left( \frac{1}{4}+\frac{5}{8} \right)\text{ kg}\]             \[=\frac{7}{8}\text{ kg}\]
