Answer: 2/1

Step-by-step explanation: Notice that 2/4 and 3/2 are unlike fractions. Our first step when adding unlike fractions is to get a common denominator.

The common denominator of 4 and 2 will be the least common multiple of 4 and 2 which is 4.

2/4 already has a 4 in the denominator so we leave it how it is.

To get a 4 in the denominator of 3/2, we multiply the numerator and the denominator by 2 which gives us 6/4.

Now we are adding like fractions so we simply add the numerators and keep the original denominator.

2/4 + 6/4 = 8/4

8/4 can be reduced to 2.

Therefore, 2/4 + 3/2 = 2/1.
