Answer:

1 1/4 + 1 1/2 = 2 3/4

Explanation:

first do 1/4 plus 1/2 to solve that you need the same denominator. To get the same denominator you have to see which number they both go into equally, 4 goes into 4 once and 2 goes into 4 twice, meaning you can make both denominators 4. 2 * 2 = 4 and if you do something to the denominator you have to do it to the numerator, so 1/2 would become 2/4. 1/4 plus 2/4 is 3/4. now move onto the whole numbers 1+1=2. so, the answer must be

2 3/4. hope this helps
