Hello there!
For this you simply need to give both fractions a common denominator!
The easiest way to do this specific problem would be to make the denominator 12. Why 12? Because 4 x 3 = 12.
So:
1/4 --> ?/12 --> 1 (3) / 12 --> 3/12
2/3 --> ?/12 --> 2 (4) / 12 --> 8/12
Total amount of time means the sum (adding them together).
When adding fractions, you MUST have a common denominator! (Which is what we just did).
So 3/12 + 8/12 = (8+3) / 12 = 11/12 hours
Notice how the denominator stayed the same? When adding/subtracting fractions, the denominator stays the same! :)
Hope this helped!

4/5, or 80%, of the flowers are not tulips.
Answer:
The total workers are<u> 2400.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
In company 80% of the workers are women.
480 workers are men.
Now, to find the total workers in all.
<u><em>In first way:</em></u>
If women are 80%, then men would be 100-80 = 20%.
Let the total workers be 
.
According to question:
⇒
⇒
⇒
Dividing both sides by 0.20 we get:
⇒
.
Total workers = 2400.
<em><u>Now, in second way</u></em>.
Again, let the total workers be .
According to question:
⇒
<em>On solving:</em>
⇒
⇒
<em>Dividing both sides by 0.20 we get:</em>
⇒.
<em>Total workers = 2400.</em>
Therefore, the total workers are <u>2400</u>.
