The question is asking you to add the two numbers and find its equivalent in decimal form. Naturally,
We must find out how to represent 
as a decimal in order to solve the problem. To find the decimal form, divide 1.00 by 20.
You divide by 1.00 because decimals are based off of this number (fractions are based on 1 and percents on 100%). The answer 
is exactly 
. In order to figure out what the equivalent of 
is, simply multiply your answer by the numerator, 3.
