Juan spent 1 1/2 hours working on a project on Monday, 2 hours on Tuesday, and 2 3/4 hours on Thursday. How many hours did it take him to finish the project?​

Monday hours        +    Thursday hours         =      Total hours

            1 1/2                 +        2 3/4                   =       3 +    (? how do you add 1/2+3/4)

 Now, you could convert to all improper fractions:

               3/2                 +        11/4

               6/4                 +         11/4               [4 is the Least Common Multiple of 2 and 4]

                           17/4

                           4 1/4                                   [then back to mixed numbers]

 Or. you could add 1+2=3

     and    1/2  +  3/4

              2/4   +  3/4

                    5/4

                 1 1/4        [convert to mixed number]

         3 + 1 1/4  = 4 1/4        [remember to add the 3]
