The value of $\frac{1+3+5}{10+6+2}$ is
(A) $\frac{1}{6}$
(B) 2
(C) $\frac{1}{2}$
(D) $1 \frac{1}{2}$
(E) $3 \frac{1}{10}$

Solution 1

$$
\begin{aligned}
\frac{1+3+5}{10+6+2} & =\frac{9}{18} \\
& =\frac{1}{2}
\end{aligned}
$$

Solution 2

$\frac{1+3+5}{10+6+2}=\frac{(1+3+5)}{2(5+3+1)}$

$$
=\frac{1}{2}
$$
