Answer:

[tex]1\frac{1}{10}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Dan grew [tex]\frac{3}{10}[/tex] of an inch, when he was 15.

Dan grew [tex]\frac{8}{10}[/tex] of an inch, when he was 16.

Dan grow during these two years by adding growth of year 15 and 16

Such as

[tex]growth=\frac{3}{10}+\frac{8}{10}[/tex]

[tex]growth=\frac{3+8}{10} \\growth=11/10[/tex]

And also we write the answer in whole or mixed number such as

=[tex]1\frac{1}{10}[/tex]
