2 1/3 because you just add the fractions it's simple :) happy to help

Answer 2

Answer:

$\frac{15}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the number of pitchers, we will add all the given quantity of water in all jugs.

$\frac{1}{2} +\frac{1}{3} +\frac{1}{6} +\frac{1}{2} +\frac{1}{8} +\frac{1}{4}$

$\frac{1}{2} +\frac{1}{2}$=1

$1+ \frac{1}{3} +\frac{1}{6} +\frac{1}{8} +\frac{1}{4}$

The LCM of 1, 3,6,8 and 4 =24

$\frac{24+8+4+3+6}{24}$ = $\frac{45}{24}$ = $\frac{15}{8}$

=  1.875
