4 and 1/4 would have 17 fourths in it.
Here is a way to think about it....
You have 4 wholes.
There is 4 fourths in each whole....4/4 = 1
Your questions includes 4 wholes + 1/4...
1 whole = 4 fourths
Multiply your number of wholes (4) times 4 (fourths) = 16
16 fourths are in the 4 wholes that you are asking plus you add the 1/4 from the original problem.
Therefore....It takes 17 fourths to equal 4 and 1/4.
