B. 1 1/4

C. 3 1/4

D. 3 11/24

Answer 1

Answer:

$3\frac{11}{24}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Leftover pizza from the Science club = $1\frac{1}{4}$

Left over pizza from french club  = $2\frac{5}{24}$

Unknown;

Total left over pizzas between the two clubs = ?

Now to solve problem, simply add the leftover from the science club and the french club together;

      Total left over pizza  = $1\frac{1}{4}$   + $2\frac{5}{24}$  

                                         = $\frac{5}{4} + \frac{53}{24}$  

                                         =  $\frac{83}{24}$

                                         = $3\frac{11}{24}$

The total left over pizza between the two clubs is $3\frac{11}{24}$
