Question

Eddie's fishing. He has 1 1/4 ounces of weights on his line, but his bait isn't getting to the bottom of the lake. Eddie add another 1/2-ounces weight to the line, but it's still not enough. Finally, Eddie adds a 3/4-ounces weights and the bait sinks. How much weight does eddie now have on his line?

Answer 1

The initial weight is given by:
 $1 \frac{1}{4} = 1.25$
 Then, we add a second weight:
 $\frac{1}{2} = 0.5$
 Finally, we add a third weight:
 $\frac{3}{4} = 0.75$
 Adding the three added weights, we can find the total weight.
 We have then:
 $1.25 + 0.5 + 0.75 = 2.5$
 The total weight is:
 $2.5 = 2 \frac{1}{2}$
 Answer:
 eddie now has $2 \frac{1}{2}$ ounces on his line
