The athlete drank 3/5 of a bottle in the first half and 1/2 of a bottle in the second half.

To find out how much he drank in total, you need to add these two fractions together.

First, you need to find a common denominator for the fractions. The least common denominator for 5 and 2 is 10.

So, convert 3/5 and 1/2 to fractions that have 10 as the denominator.

3/5 is equivalent to 6/10 (because 3 * 2 = 6 and 5 * 2 = 10) and 1/2 is equivalent to 5/10 (because 1 * 5 = 5 and 2 * 5 = 10).

Now, add these two fractions together:

6/10 + 5/10 = 11/10

So, the athlete drank 11/10 of a bottle in total.

Since the numerator is greater than the denominator, this is an improper fraction.

To convert it to a mixed number, divide the numerator by the denominator:

11 ÷ 10 = 1 remainder 1

So, 11/10 is equivalent to 1 1/10.

Therefore, the athlete drank 1 1/10 bottles of sports drink in total.
