Add mix numbers Madison made a fruit salad . She used 3 1 fourth cups of straw berries and 2 1 fourths cups of blueberries. How many cups of berries did Madison use?

1 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

For the strawberries, we will have to multiply 3 by 1/4 to get the total amount of strawberries used.

1/4 * 3 = 3/4

For the blueberries, we will have to multiply 2 by 1/4 to get the total amount of blueberries used.

1/4 * 2 = 2/4

Simplify that to get 1/2

Now we need to add 3/4 and 1/2

3/4 + 1/2 = 5/4

Simplify that and we get our answer;

1 1/4
