Lee needed to make drapes the length from the floor to the top of the window. The wall beneath the window had the height of 2 2/3 feet and the height of just the window measured 2 3/4 feet. How long do the drapes have to be?

We\ should\ sum \ those \ two\ measurements\ to \ obtain\ length\ of\ drapes\\\\ 2 (2)/(3)+2(3)/(4)=(8)/(3)+(11)/(4)=(24)/(12)+(33)/(12)=(57)/(12) =4,75feet
