Question

Lila collected the honey from 3 of her beehives. From the first hive she collected 2/3 gallon of honey. The last two hives yielded 1/4 gallon each.

How many GALLONS of honey did Lila collect in all?

Answer 1

1 1/6

Explanation:

Given function:

• find the three beehives honey Lila total collected
• 2/3,1/4,1/4

Combine the terms:

• 
  `(2)/(3)+(1)/(4)+(1)/(4)=(2)/(3)+(2)/(4)`

Simplfly the fraction terms:

• 
  `(2)/(3)`·
  `4=(8)/(12)`
• 
  `(2)/(4)`·
  `3=(6)/(12)`

Combine the terms:

• 
  `(8)/(12)+(6)/(12)=(14)/(12)`

Simplifly the final value:

• 
  `(14)/(12)=1(2)/(12)`

• 
  `1(2)/(12)=1(1)/(6)`

Therefore, the three beehives gives a total of 1 1/6 honey..
