Pecans = 1/4

almonds= 1/2

you have to add dissimilar fractions...how?

get the LCD (least common denominator) of the two denominators.

2=2,4,6,8,10...
4=4,8,12,16,20...

least common denominator = 4

1 ?
/ = /
2 4

1 ?
/ = /
4 4

you have to divide the LCD from the denominator.

4÷2=2

4÷4=1

after dividing, you have to multiply your current numbers with the numerator.

2×1=2

4×1=4

your final answers are the numerators.

1 2
/ = /
2 4

1 4
/ = /
4 4

now you have to add

2/4 + 4/4 = 6/4

if you have to make it a mixed number, divide.

6÷4 = 1 remainder 2

the quotient (1) will be your whole number

the denominator will still be the same as the old one. (4)

the remainder is the numerator.

mixed number= 1 2/4

1 2/4 or 1 1/2 (if needed simplified) is the answee
