Answer: 29/28

Explanation:

To add fractions we have to calculate the Least Common Denominator of the denominators. Then we have to change each fraction (using equivalent fractions) to make their denominators the same as the Least Common Denominator. Then we can add (or subtract) the fractions.

LCD (4,7,2)= 4·7 = 28

1/4 = 7/28

2/7 = 4·2/28 = 8/28

1/2 = 14/28

Since the fractions have the same denominator we can add them

7/28 + 8/28 + 14/28 = (7+8+14)/28 = 29/28
