Answer:

r + 1

Explanation:

Combine like terms. Add the constants together and add the terms with the variable r together. In order to add fractions, keep the common denominator and add only the numerators together. Then, simplify, and divide the numerator by the denominator if the result is a whole number.

This gives the following answer:


(1)/(3) r+(1)/(4) +(2)/(3) r+(3)/(4) \\=(1)/(3) r+(2)/(3) r+(1)/(4) +(3)/(4)\\=(3)/(3) r+(4)/(4) \\=r+1
