Answer 2

Answer with explanation:

Question asked by Mr.Maddox to find the sum of fractions with the help of number line :

`\rightarrow 3 (2)/(3)+1 (3)/(4)+(2)/(3)\\\\ \text{Using Associative Property}\\\\\rightarrow a+(b+c)=(b+c)+a\\\\\rightarrow [(2)/(3)+ 1(3)/(4)]+3 (2)/(3)\\\\\rightarrow [(2)/(3)+(7)/(4)]+(11)/(3)\\\\\rightarrow (21+8)/(12)+ (11)/(3)\\\\\rightarrow(29+44)/(12)\\\\ \rightarrow(73)/(12)\\\\\rightarrow 6(1)/(12)`
