The number line represents -4 1/2 +3 1/4 What is the sum?

Answer
Option C is correct.
-4 ½ + 3 ¼ = -1 ¼
Explanation
We are asked to solve the expression
-4 ½ + 3 ¼
To solve this, we first convert the mixed fractions into improper fractions
-4 ½ = -(9/2)
3 ¼ = (13/4)
We can then take the LCM by expressing both fractions to have the same denominatorr
-4 ½ = -(9/2) = -(18/4)
3 ¼ = (13/4)
-4 ½ + 3 ¼
= -(18/4) + (13/4)
= (-18 + 13)/4
= (-5/4)
= -1 ¼
