Answer 2

Fourth Option

Explanation:

In order to find the answer to this question you need to change the mixed number into a improper fraction and then add by finding the least common denominator (LCD).

`-(3)/(4) +2(3)/(4)`

Convert into improper fraction:

`2(3)/(4) =4*2=8+3=11`

`-(3)/(4) +(11)/(4)`

Since how the denominators are the same you can just add numerators:

`-3+11=8`

`=(8)/(4)`

Reduce:

`8/4=2`

`4/4=1`

`=(2)/(1)`

`(2)/(1) =2`

Hope this helps.
