To solve this problem, we add the weights of both cats together.
Quincy's cat weighs 10 1/8 pounds.
Jeanette's cat weighs 9 1/4 pounds.
To add these fractions, we need to find a common denominator. The least common multiple of 8 and 4 is 8.
10 1/8 + 9 1/4 = 10 2/8 + 9 2/8
= 19 3/8
So, the cats weigh a total of 19 3/8 pounds.
Quincy's cat weighs 10 1/8 pounds.
