Answer:

Both B & C answers are correct

Explanation:

To solve these two fractions, 1st you have to make both the numerator and the denominator the same.

For that, you can multiply both the numerator and the denominator of 1/4 by 2.


\sf(4)/(8) +\sf(1)/(4) \\\\\sf(4)/(8) +\sf(1*2)/(4*2)\\\\\sf(4)/(8) +\sf(2)/(8)\\\\\sf(6)/(8)

To write the fraction in its simplest form, divide both sides by 2.


\sf(3)/(4)
