Answer

D) $6\frac{1}{6}$

Work Step by Step

Flour: $3\frac{3}{4}$ Sugar: $1\frac{1}{2}$ Brown Sugar: $\frac{2}{3}$ Oil: $\frac{1}{4}$ Convert all the fractions into a common denominator. 2, 3, and 4 all go into 12. You would then have $$\frac{45}{12}, \frac{18}{12}, \frac{8}{12}, \frac{3}{12}$$ Add the numerators ($3, 8, 18, 45$) together, which gives you $74$, divided by 12 creates the fraction $$\frac{74}{12}$$ Which simplifies to $$\frac{37}{6}$$ You must then convert it to a mixed fraction, which gives you the final answer $$6\frac{1}{6}$$.
