A science experiment calls for mixing 3 and two-thirds cups of distilled water with 1 and three-fourths cups of vinegar and Two-thirds cups of liquid detergent. How much liquid in all, in cups, is needed? 2 and StartFraction 1 over 12 EndFraction 4 and StartFraction 1 over 12 EndFraction 5 and StartFraction 1 over 12 EndFraction 6 and StartFraction 1 over 12 EndFraction

D. 6 1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

First add the like fractions.

3 2/3 + 2/3 = 3 4/3 (Don't worry about simplifying yet)

Now find the least common multiple for 3 4/3 and 1 3/4 so we can add them.

3: 3, 6,  9, 12

4: 4, 8, 12

In this case 12 is the least common multiple.

3/4 x 3/3 = 9/12    9/12

4/3 x 4/4 = 16/12

Add those two fractions then add the whole numbers and put it in front.

4 25/12

Simplify

6 1/12
