What is 3 and 3 quarters plus 4 and 3 fifths?

Answer 1

33/4+43/5...

First - add the whole numbers... 3+4=7

Next - make both fractions have the same denominator... 3/4 = 15/20 and 3/5 = 12/20

Now - add the two fractions together... 15/20 + 12/20 = 27/20

27/20 = 17/20. Now all you need to do is add the 7 from the first step, and you have the answer 87/20

15/4 = 75/20

23/5 = 92/20

75 + 92 = 167/20 = 8 and 7/20
