Answer (1)
Answer:Here's how to solve the problem: 1. Convert mixed numbers to fractions: - 1 3/4 = (4 * 1 + 3) / 4 = 7/4- 3 4/7 = (7 * 3 + 4) / 7 = 25/7 2. Add the fractions: - 7/4 + 25/7 = (7 * 7 + 25 * 4) / (4 * 7) = (49 + 100) / 28 = 149/28 3. Simplify the answer (optional): - 149/28 can be converted back to a mixed number: 5 9/28 Answer: Mary used a total of 5 9/28 cups of sugar.
