http://prntscr.com/bcj3ty Is this correct?

I think it's C actually

OpenStudy (gokuporter):

Why?

OpenStudy (call_me_abby):

3/5 is 6/10. The number halfway between 6/10 and 7/10 is 6.5/10, which is 0.65. 13/20 is 0.65

OpenStudy (gokuporter):

Oh right, thank you.

OpenStudy (call_me_abby):

No problem :D

@gokuporter Glad that you questioned someone's direct answer. Another way to find the half way between two fractions is to double the denominators of each and add, for example: average(3/5+7/10)=3/10+7/20=6/20+7/20=(6+7)/20=13/20 You can almost do that without pen and pencil.
