Question

Help please with math

Answer 1

Working with fractions, huh? They are not as hard as you may think. 

Just think:

1/4 = 2/8

3/4= 6/8

So...

9 3/4 = 9 6/8

Step 2.
 
9 + 1 = 10

6/8 + 1/8 = 7/8

Step 3

10 and 7/8

Step 4

Simplest answer 
 10  7/8, 
(can't get more simplified than that)

Hope this helps! :)

Answer 2

In this question, you have to add the inches. so, (9+3/4) + (1+1/8) = 87/8

I converted the mixed fractions into improper fractions, which gave me: 

39/4 and 9/8 and then, I multiplied the 39 by two, so that the fractions have a common denominator (8) -> 78/8 + 9/8 and this equals 87/8
