Answer 2

Answer:

67/12  

(just in case if they would ask you for the simplified form the answer in is 5 7/12)

Step-by-step explanation:

convert both mixed fractions to improper fractions first

2 1/3 = 7/3    3 1/4 = 13/4

(cross multiplication method, to make both fractions have the same denominator)

7/3 + 13/4

7/3 × 4/4 = 28/12

13/4 × 3/3 = 39/12

28/12 + 39/12 = 67/12 (just add, denominator will remain the same)

67/12 (simplify)

67/12 = 5 7/12 (simplified)
