Answer 1

Answer : The combined amount in cups of tiled oats and raisins that is used in one bath of granola bars is,
`(13)/(6)`

Step-by-step explanation :

As we are given that, for one bath of bars, there are
`1(2)/(3)` cups of rolled oats, and
`(1)/(2)` cup of raisins.

Now we have to calculate the combined amount in cups of tiled oats and raisins that is used in one bath of granola bars.

Combined amount = Amount of rolled oats + Amount of raisins

Combined amount =
`1(2)/(3)+(1)/(2)`

Combined amount =
`(5)/(3)+(1)/(2)`

Combined amount =
`(10+3)/(6)`

Combined amount =
`(13)/(6)`

Therefore, the combined amount in cups of tiled oats and raisins that is used in one bath of granola bars is,
`(13)/(6)`
