first combine 5 1/4 into an improper fraction and you get 21/4 . Now convert 2 into fourths and you get 8/4, So now you have 8/4 + 21/4 = 29/4 or 7 1/4

2 = 8/4
5 1/4 = 5 + 1/4 = 20/4 + 1/4 = 21/4
2 + 5 1/4 = 8/4 + 21/4 = 29/4 and thats as simple as it gets. in decimal form it will be 7.25

put both numbers into fractions with common denomenators.
first 5 1/4= 21/4
then 2= 8/4
so...
21/4 + 8/4= 29/4

= 2 + 5 1/4

Answer: 7 1/4
Another way (illustrative w/least common denominator of 4):
= 8/4 + 21/4
= 29/4
= 7 1/4

you add the whole numbers together and then add the decimals.
2+5+7
7+1/4= 71/4
