Answer:
b= 5/4 or 1 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
First I will make 1 3/4 into an improper fraction
1/2 + b = 7/4
Then I will make the fractions have common denominators
2/4 + b = 7/4
I subtract 2/4 from 7/4
b= 5/4
Answer:
b represents the unknown number, the number that we are finding by solving this equation
b = 1 1/4
or, in decimal form
1.25 = b
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 + b = 1 3/4
b = 1 3/4 - 1/2 ------------> 1/2 = 2/4
b = 1 3/4 - 2/4
b = 1 1/4
or, in decimal form
1.25 = b
b represents the unknown number, the number that we are finding by solving this equation
