Add the gain and the last weight together
new weight = 6 3/4 + 1 1/2
or we can write it as
new weight = 6 + 3/4 + 1 + 1/2

Separate whole numbers and fraction
new weight = 6 + 3/4 + 1 + 1/2
new weight = 6 + 1 + 3/4 + 1/2

Simplify the whole numbers
new weight = 6 + 1 + 3/4 + 1/2
new weight = 7 + 3/4 + 1/2

Equalize the denominators of the fraction
new weight = 7 + 3/4 + 1/2
new weight = 7 + 3/4 + 2/4
new weight = 7 + 5/4

Because 5/4 is improper fraction, change it to mixed fraction
new weight = 7 + 5/4
new weight = 7 + 1 1/4
new weight = 7 + 1 + 1/4
new weight = 8 + 1/4
new weight = 8 1/4

The cat weights 8 1/4 pounds now
