Answer:

$6.25 or $6 and 25 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

Ms.Shanks collects \$1\dfrac{3}{4},\ \$\dfrac{3}{4},\ \$\dfrac{1}{4},\ \$2\dfrac{2}{4},and \$1 from five of her students.

In total she collects

\$\left(1\dfrac{3}{4}+\dfrac{3}{4}+\dfrac{1}{4}+2\dfrac{2}{4}+1\right)=\$\left(1+2+1+\dfrac{3}{4}+\dfrac{3}{4}+\dfrac{1}{4}+\dfrac{2}{4}\right)=\$\left(4+\dfrac{9}{4}\right)=\\ \\\$\left(4+2\dfrac{1}{4}\right)=\$6\dfrac{1}{4}

Note that

\$6\dfrac{1}{4}=\$6.25 ($6 and 25 cents)

Now check in decimals:

\$1\dfrac{3}{4}=\$1.75\\ \\\$\dfrac{3}{4}=\$0.75\\ \\\$\dfrac{1}{4}=\$0.25\\ \\\$2\dfrac{2}{4}=\$2.50\\ \\\$1=\$1

So, the sum is

\$1.75+\$0.75+\$0.25+\$2.50+\$1=\$1.75+\$1+\$3.50=\$1.75+\$4.50=\$6.25
