Answer:

The answer to your problem is, 12 1/2

Explanation:

As shown to the problem we would need to add

4 1/2 + 2 7/12

Lets make them equivalent denominators:

1/2 & 7/12

= 24

1/2 = 12/24

7/12 = 14/24

Then make the new problem into;

4 12/24 + 7 14/24

= 12 1/2

Thus the answer to your problem is, 12 1/2
