  1 5/24 + 7 22/24 = 8 27/24

Step-by-step explanation:

No change is required to the fraction on the first line:

  1 5/24 = 1 5/24

The fraction on the second line can be multiplied by 2/2 to make its denominator 24.

  7 11/12 = 7 22/24

The fraction on the third line is the sum of the fractions on the other two lines. It is an improper fraction. We know this because the integer portion of the sum is shown as 8, not 9, as it would be if the fraction were reduced.

  5/24 +22/24 = 27/24

Then the sum is ...

  1 5/24 +7 22/24 = 8 27/24

If the fraction on the final line were reduced, the sum would be 9 3/24 = 9 1/8.

answer is

c) 4

step-by-step explanation:

the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side. if you take the three sides of a triangle and add them in pairs, the sum is greater than (not equal to) the third side. if that is not true, then it is not possible to construct a triangle with the given side lengths.
