Question

What is 10 1/4 feet plus 8 2/4 feet.

Answer 1

The answer is
`18(3)/(4)ft`

Since we have like denominators, we are able to add without any problem.


`10 (1)/(4) +8 (2)/(4)`...........................................Add the whole numbers first


`18 (1)/(4) + (2)/(4)`.............................................Add the fractions together


`18(3)/(4)`....................................................Remember to not add denominators together, but only the numerators (top numbers)

Thank you for your question! I hope this helped! :D Have an amazing day! :)

Answer 2

It breaks down like this:
1/4 + 2/4 = 3/4
10 + 8 = 18
18 + 3/4 = 18 3/4

Your answer would be 18 3/4

Hope this helps!
