$$4 + \frac { 1 } { 4 } + 3$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{29}{4}=7.25$$

Solution Steps

Convert 4 to fraction \frac{16}{4}.

$$\frac{16}{4}+\frac{1}{4}+3$$

Since \frac{16}{4} and \frac{1}{4} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{16+1}{4}+3$$

Add 16 and 1 to get 17.

$$\frac{17}{4}+3$$

Convert 3 to fraction \frac{12}{4}.

$$\frac{17}{4}+\frac{12}{4}$$

Since \frac{17}{4} and \frac{12}{4} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{17+12}{4}$$

Add 17 and 12 to get 29.

$$\frac{29}{4}$$
