Lainey Murillo · Answer 1

5 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

2 1/4 + 2 3/4 = 5 cups of flour

Wayne Doyle · Answer 2

The answer is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

A trick you can use here is by understanding what the fraction is indicating, the number 4 indicates a full cup reached and the first 1/4 is 1 part out of 4 parts to be reached. the second fraction is 3 out of 4 and if you add the one on the other fraction then you get 3+1==4 which majes a full cup

and once you ad the other 4 cups you get 5
