Question

1. what is $7\frac{1}{3} + 4\frac{2}{3}$?

$\bigcirc$ $11\frac{2}{9}$
$\bigcirc$ $11\frac{2}{6}$
$\bigcirc$ $11\frac{1}{3}$
$\bigcirc$ 12

Explanation:

Step1: Add the whole numbers and the fractions separately

First, add the whole number parts: \(7 + 4 = 11\). Then, add the fractional parts: \(\frac{1}{3}+\frac{2}{3}\).

Step2: Simplify the fraction addition

For the fractions, since they have the same denominator, we add the numerators: \(\frac{1 + 2}{3}=\frac{3}{3}=1\).

Step3: Combine the results

Now, add the result from the whole numbers and the result from the fractions: \(11+1 = 12\).

Answer:

12 (corresponding to the option "12")
