Answer:

answer is 3 11/12

Explanation:

1 4/6 =10/6

2 1/4=9/4

when adding fractions that are do not share a common denominatour you have to find a common multiple

which in this case is 12

so 9/4 timesed the top and the bottom by 3 gives you 27/12

and 10/6 timesed the top and bottom by 2 gives you 20/12 and then you add the the nominators which is 20+27 which then gives you 47/12 and then to change it back to mixed fraction you will get 3 (wholes) and 11/12 (fraction)

Hope this helps xx
