Answer:
(43)/(4)\ \text{Gallons}

Explanation:

Given

The first one has 4 gallons and 2 quarts of juice

The second one has 1
(3)/(4) gallons more than the first

First has


\Rightarrow 4+(2)/(4)\\\\\Rightarrow (9)/(2)\ \text{Gallons}

second has


\Rightarrow 1(3)/(4)+(9)/(2)\\\\\Rightarrow (7)/(4)+(18)/(4)\\\\\Rightarrow (25)/(4)\ \text{Gallons}

together it is


\Rightarrow (25)/(4)+(18)/(4)\\\Rightarrow (25+18)/(4)\\\Rightarrow (43)/(4)\ \text{Gallons}
