Answer: 5 1/12
Explanation:
1. Conversion a mixed number 1 3/4 to a improper fraction: 1 3/4 = 1 3/4 = 1 · 4 + 3/4 = 4 + 3/4 = 7/4
2. Conversion a mixed number 3 1/3 to a improper fraction: 3 1/3 = 3 1/3 = 3 · 3 + 1/3 = 9 + 1/3 = 10/3
3. Add: 7/4 + 10/3 = 7 · 3/4 · 3 + 10 · 4/3 · 4 = 21/12 + 40/12 = 21 + 40/12 = 61/12
