Question #2d6cc

Answer 1

Use PEMDAS. Extended answers at the very bottom.

Explanation:

We always want to follow the PEMDAS method.

Because there are no parentheses or exponents, we can skip the first two steps.

The next steps, Multiplication and Division, can be used.

`1/1` is a form of division, and can be simplified to become `1`.

We now have `1` `/4 +1`

`1` `/4` is another form of division, and can always look like `1/4`.

Now we have `1/4 +1`, where we just add the two together.

There are different ways to give your answer, whether you want a mixed number, improper fraction, or decimal form.

1. Mixed number:
   `1 1/4`
2. Improper fraction:
   `1` becomes `4/4`, and when added together becomes `5/4`.
3. Decimal form:
   `1/4` is just `.25`, and becomes `1.25`.
