Answer 2

Answer:

$\frac{21}{4}$ or  $5 \frac{1}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$1 \frac{2}{4} + 3 \frac{3}{4}$

First, I would convert them into improper fractions. To convert $1 \frac{2}{4}$, I would do 1 x 4 = 4, then + 2 = 6

To convert $3 \frac{3}{4}$ , I would do the same: 3 x 4 = 12 + 3 = 15

That leaves us with $\frac{6}{4}$ + $\frac{15}{4}$

All we have to do is add the numerators (top numbers) so

6 + 15 = 21

Answer = $\frac{21}{4}$

or, as a mixed number, $5 \frac{1}{4}$

Hope this makes sense. If you require any further explanation, feel free to ask..
