Question

Lila collected the honey from 3 of her beehives. From the first hive she collected 2/3 gallon of honey. The last two hives yielded 1/4 gallon each.
How many GALLONS of honey did Lila collect in all?

Answer 1

Answer:

1 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:

• find the three beehives honey Lila total collected
• 2/3,1/4,1/4

Combine the terms:

• $\frac{2}{3}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{2}{3}+\frac{2}{4}$                    

Simplfly the fraction terms:

• $\frac{2}{3}$·$4=\frac{8}{12}$
• $\frac{2}{4}$·$3=\frac{6}{12}$

Combine the terms:

• $\frac{8}{12}+\frac{6}{12}=\frac{14}{12}$

Simplifly the final value:

• $\frac{14}{12}=1\frac{2}{12}$

• $1\frac{2}{12}=1\frac{1}{6}$

Therefore, the three beehives gives a total of 1 1/6 honey..
