Question

Gianna is making two different salads. One calls for 3 3/4 cups chopped spinach. The other calls for 2 2/3 cups chopped spinach. How much spinach dose Gianna Need?

Answer 1

The answer is very simple add the whole numbers then find the LCM of 3 and 4 which is 12 then multiply 3/4 by 3 which will be 9/12 then multiply 2/3 by 4 which will be 9/12 then we add 9/12 + 8/12 which will equal to 5 17/12 which we can reduce and answer will be 6 5/12 spinach.
