1.

2 3/4 + 1 1/3

8/4 = 2

+ 3/4

= 11/4

2.

1 1/3

3/3 = 1

+ 1/3

= 4/3

3. 11/4 + 4/3

4. Find common denominator

4 * 3 = 12

5. Convert 11/4 to ?/12 = 33/12

(4 goes into 12: 3 times. 3 * 11 = 33

6. Convert 4/3 to ?/12 = 16/12

(3 goes into 12: 4 times. 4 * 4 = 16

33/12 + 16/12 = 49/12

49/12 = 4.08333 or 4 1/12 cups
