34 and 3 quarters would be like 34 pies plus one more pie with one quarter of it missing. Write the "whole number" (34 pies) followed by the fraction (3/4 pie).

34 3/4 or 34-3/4

Sometimes the dash is added to emphasize that a fraction is involved especially on construction diagrams that may soil or fade. If 1 1/16 was mistaken for 11/16 in machining an airplane part, the plane might crash, right?
