Answer:
The recipe calls for 19/12 or 1 7/9 cups.
Step-by-step:
In order to get this answer, we have to add all three fractions together. First, we have to find the LCM (Least Common Multiple) between the three denominators:
2: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12
3: 3,6,9,12
4: 4,8,12
The LCM between these three denominators is 12.
4x3=12
2x6=12
3x4=12
You now multiply the numerator by the same number you multiplied by for the denominator in order to get 12:
3/4 becomes 9/12
1/2 becomes 6/12
1/3 becomes 4/12
We now add all the fractions together:
9/12+6/12+4/12= 19/12
We got 19/12 but the answer is an improper fraction so we turn it into a mixed number:
12x1=12 (7 remaining)
This is written as 1 7/12.
Hope this helps! :)
