To add the two mixed fractions, first convert them into improper fractions and then add them together.
2 4/5 = (2 * 5 + 4) / 5 = 14 / 5
1 3/4 = (1 * 4 + 3) / 4 = 7 / 4
Now, add the two improper fractions:
14/5 + 7/4 = (14 * 4 + 7 * 5) / (5 * 4) = (56 + 35) / 20 = 91/20
Therefore, the sum of the two mixed fractions 2 4/5 and 1 3/4 is equal to 91/20.
2 4/5 = (2 * 5 + 4) / 5 = 14 / 5
1 3/4 = (1 * 4 + 3) / 4 = 7 / 4
Now, add the two improper fractions:
14/5 + 7/4 = (14 * 4 + 7 * 5) / (5 * 4) = (56 + 35) / 20 = 91/20
Therefore, the sum of the two mixed fractions 2 4/5 and 1 3/4 is equal to 91/20.
