Tina spent 3/5 of her paycheck on a trip to the beach. She spent 3/8 of her paycheck on new clothes for the trip. What fraction of her paycheck did Tina spend on the trip and clothes together?

Tina spent almost all her paycheck on the trip and buying new clothes for the trip. She spent 39/40 of her paycheck.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Amount spent by Tina on a trip to the beach = 3/5

Amount spent by Tina on new clothes = 3/8

2. What fraction of her paycheck did Tina spend on the trip and clothes together?

Total spent by Tina on the trip and new clothes = 3/5 + 3/8

Total spent by Tina on the trip and new clothes = 24/40 + 15/40 = 39/40

Tina spent almost all her paycheck on the trip and buying new clothes for the trip. She spent 39/40 of her paycheck.
