Answer:

1/4 + 3/7 = 19/28

Explanation:

Step 1: Find common denominator

Common denominator of 7 and 4 is 28 (since 7 × 4 = 28)

Step 2: Multiply fractions by the factor (equivalent to 1) that will bring each denominator to 28

1/4 × 7/7 = 7/28

3/7 × 4/4 = 12/28

Step 3: Simply add the newly-converted fractions

7/28 + 12/28 = 19/28

This fraction cannot be simplified, so the final answer is 19/28.

Your answer is 19/28

First you find common denominators

1/4 and 3/7 both have 28 as a common denominator

Multiply the denominators to get the same denominator 1/4 by 7= 7/28 and 3/7 by 4= 12/28

Add that and you get 19/28 and it stays like that because you can’t simply it
