Answer:

1 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:

  • find the three beehives honey Lila total collected
  • 2/3,1/4,1/4

Combine the terms:

  • [tex]\frac{2}{3}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{2}{3}+\frac{2}{4}[/tex]                    

Simplfly the fraction terms:

  • [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]·[tex]4=\frac{8}{12}[/tex]
  • [tex]\frac{2}{4}[/tex]·[tex]3=\frac{6}{12}[/tex]

Combine the terms:

  • [tex]\frac{8}{12}+\frac{6}{12}=\frac{14}{12}[/tex]

Simplifly the final value:

  • [tex]\frac{14}{12}=1\frac{2}{12}[/tex]
  • [tex]1\frac{2}{12}=1\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

Therefore, the three beehives gives a total of 1 1/6 honey..
