$$\frac{5}{4}+\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{2}$$

$\frac{39}{20}=1.95$

Least common multiple of $4$ and $5$ is $20$. Convert $\frac{5}{4}$ and $\frac{1}{5}$ to fractions with denominator $20$.

$$\frac{25}{20}+\frac{4}{20}+\frac{1}{2}$$

Since $\frac{25}{20}$ and $\frac{4}{20}$ have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{25+4}{20}+\frac{1}{2}$$

Add $25$ and $4$ to get $29$.

$$\frac{29}{20}+\frac{1}{2}$$

Least common multiple of $20$ and $2$ is $20$. Convert $\frac{29}{20}$ and $\frac{1}{2}$ to fractions with denominator $20$.

$$\frac{29}{20}+\frac{10}{20}$$

Since $\frac{29}{20}$ and $\frac{10}{20}$ have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{29+10}{20}$$

Add $29$ and $10$ to get $39$.

$$\frac{39}{20}$$

$\frac{3 \cdot 13}{2 ^ {2} \cdot 5} = 1\frac{19}{20} = 1.95$
