Question

"Dan" uses 2/3 cup of brown sugar and 1/4 cup of white sugar to make oatmeal bars. How many cups of sugar does he use in all?

Answer 1

the number of cups of sugar he use in all is
`(11)/(12)`

Explanation:

The number of cups does he use in all as follows:

= Brown sugar + white sugar

`= (2)/(3) + (1)/(4)\\\\= (8 + 3)/(12) \\\\= (11)/(12)`

Hence, the number of cups of sugar he use in all is
`(11)/(12)`
