Answer 1

Answer:

11 1/2 quarts

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to add the quarts of paint

2 2/4 + 4 3/4 + 4 1/4

Since they all have the same denominator for the fraction, we add the whole numbers

2+4+4 = 10

And the fractions

2/4 + 3/4+ 1/4 = 6/4

This is bigger than 1

6-4 =2 so we have 1 +2/4

10 + 1 + 2/4

11 2/4

We can simplify 2/4 because the top and bottom can be divided by 2

11 1/2 quarts
