Explain how the sum will be greater than 5
3 3/4 + 1 1/2=

This is because 3 3/4 (3.75) + 1 1/2 (1.50) is 5.25. So first you can find the common denominator for 3/4 and 1/2. The xommon denominator is 4 since 3/4 already have a common denominator of 4 you leave 3 34 alone. For 1/2 multiply the nuerator and denominator by 2 resulting in 2/4 so together its 1 2/4. When you add 3 3/4+ 1 2/4, you will get 5 1/4 or 5.25. The easier way is just converting the fractions to decimal. Therefore the answer is 5.25. 5.25> 5

It would be the second one because it passes the vertical line test

Your answer should be 1/3. i hope i could ! good luck : )
