Answer as a decimal = 22.5

Answer as a fraction = 45/2

===========================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

Replace c with 6, and replace d with 7.

Then use the order of operations (PEMDAS) to simplify until you get a single number.


(1)/(4)c + 3d\\\\(1)/(4)(6) + 3(7)\\\\(6)/(4) + 21\\\\1.5 + 21\\\\22.5\\\\

If you want to convert this to an improper fraction, then,


22.5 = 22 + 0.5\\\\22.5 = 22 + (1)/(2)\\\\22.5 = 22*(2)/(2) + (1)/(2)\\\\22.5 = (44)/(2) + (1)/(2)\\\\22.5 = (44+1)/(2)\\\\22.5 = (45)/(2)\\\\
