Answer 1

5 cups of soup mix

Explanation:

Make all the denominators equal. The lowest common denominator is 12 so multiple the denominators with 4 by 3, 2 by 6, and 3 by 4.

`(7)/(4) *3=(21)/(12)`

`(1)/(2) *6=(6)/(12)`

`(5)/(3) *4=(20)/(12)`

`(1)/(3) *4=(4)/(12)`

`(1)/(4) *3=(3)/(12)`

`(1)/(2) *6=(6)/(12)`

Now that all the fractions have the same denominator you can add them all together.

`(21)/(12) +(6)/(12) +(20)/(12) +(4)/(12) +(3)/(12) +(6)/(12)=(60)/(12)`

Then simplify the fraction to find out how many total cups of soup mix you have.

`(60)/(12) =5`

5 cups of soup mix

Answer 2

5 cups

Explanation:

hi! to find the sum of the soup mix, we have to add all the fractions together.

7/4 + 1/2 + 5/3 + 1/3 +1/4 + 1/2

we have to find a common denominator for each, which is the LCM of the denominators. this would be 12. let's change the fractions so we can add them up.

21/12 + 6/12 + 20/12 + 4/12 + 3/12 + 6/12

add the numerators and keep the denominators the same.

(21+6+20+4+3+6)/12

60/12

this simplifies to 5.

the total amount of soup mix is 5 cups.
