A recipe for trail mix calls for 2 3/4 cups of peanuts, 1 2/3 cups of cashews, and 1 1/6 cups of almonds.
How many cups of nuts are used in all?

Answer :

Answer:

5 7/12

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the total amount of nuts used in all, what we do is to add all the fractions together

But we convert them to mixed fraction to make the work easier;

2 3/4 = 11/4

1 2/3 = 5/3

1 1/6 = 7/6

Adding all, we have;

11/4 + 5/3 + 7/6 = (33+ 20 + 14)/12 = 67/12 = 5 7/12

Answer:

4 7/12

Step-by-step explanation:

2 3/4 + (1 2/3 + 1/6) = 2 3/4 + (1 4/6 + 1/6) = 2 3/4 + 1 5/6 = 2 9/12 + 1 10/12 = 3 19/12 = 4 7/12
