When working with mixed numbers, it is usually easier to convert them to improper fractions, do the operations, and then to convert any resulting improper fraction back to a mixed number:

4 1/3 + 3 3/4 = (4×3+1)/3 + (3×4+3)/4

= 13/3 + 15/4

= (13×4)/(3×4) + (15×3)/(4×3)

= 52/12 + 45/52

= 97/12

= (8×12+1)/12

= 8 1/12
