Answer:

1 3/4

Explanation:

The fractions have unlike denominators. First, find the Least Common Denominator and rewrite the fractions with the common denominator.

LCD(3/4, 1/1) = 4

Multiply both the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the number that makes its denominator equal the LCD. This is basically multiplying each fraction by 1.

(34×11)+(11×44)=?

Complete the multiplication and the equation becomes

34+44=?

The two fractions now have like denominators so you can add the numerators.

Then:

3+44=74

This fraction cannot be reduced.

The fraction

74

is the same as

7÷4

Convert to a mixed number using

long division for 7 ÷ 4 = 1R3, so

74=134

Therefore:

34+11=1 3/4

If this helped i'm glad i could help you (´・ω・`)
