Answer:

=2 $\frac{1}{12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to make the fractions equal so we can add them

1 $\frac{1}{3}$ ×4= 1 $\frac{4}{12}$

$\frac{3}{4}$ ×3= $\frac{9}{12}$

1 $\frac{4}{12}$ + $\frac{9}{12}$ =2 $\frac{1}{12}$

Write as an expression: a number that is equal to twice as much as x

lesantik [10]

Let's call the number we're looking for $y$ . We know that $y$ is twice as much as $x$ .

Twice as much as a number simply means the double of that number, and in turn the double of a number means to muliply that number by 2.

So, in order to obtain $y$ , you have to multply $x$ by 2. In formula, you have

$y = 2\cdot x$ or simply $y = 2x$
