Answer:
6 3/4
Explanation:
4 1/4 + 2 1/2
Since they have different Common Denominators, we’ll have to find the LCM for 4 and 2
4: 4, 8, 12, 16…
2, 2, 4, 6, 8…
The LCM would be 4
Now convert 2 1/2 into a denominator of 4
2 1/2 = 2 2/4
Whatever number you multiplied to get 4 is the same number that will get multiplied to find the numerator
Then we’re ready to add! (4 1/4 + 2 2/4)
4 1/4 + 2 2/4 = 6 3/4
Final Answer: 6 3/4
