Step-by-step explanation:

To add mixed fractions we have to follow these steps:


1(1)/(14)+3(1)/(14)=

1. Add the whole numbers together


1+3=4

2. Add the fractions


(1)/(14)+(1)/(14)=(2)/(14)=(1)/(7)

3. If the sum of the fractions is an improper fraction then we change it to a mixed number and add the whole part to the whole number we got in step 1.

In this case the sum of the fractions results in a proper fraction, so we can skip this step.

Answer:

The result is:


4(1)/(7)
