The answer is 1.25 because 1/2+3/4=5/4 and then you simplify 5/4 which equals 1.25

Here is you're answer:

In order to find the answer to this question you need to find the common denominator then add.


  • (1)/(2) + (3)/(4)
  • Find the common denominator:

  • CD = 4

  • 1 * 5 = 5

  • =(5)/(4)
  • Turn into mixed number:

  • (5)/(4) = 1(1)/(4)

  • = 1(1)/(4)

Therefore you're answer is "1 1/4."

Hope this helps!
