Question

1/2 + 1/4 = how many quarters

Answer 1

3/4

Explanation:

1*(1/2)= (2/2)*(1/2)= (2*1)/(2*2)=2/4

1/2+1/4=2/4+1/4=3/4

Answer 2

3

Explanation:

1/2 = 0.5

1/4 = 0.25

1/2 + 1/4

= 0.5 + 0.25

= 0.75

= 75/100

= 3/4

Quarter is 1/4.

3/4 can be written as 3 x 1/4

Hence,

1/2 + 1/4 is 3 times 1/4

1/2 + 1/4 = 3 quarters.
