add the whole numbers first:
4+6+5
4+6=10
10+5=15
DON'T forget to add the fractions
1/2 + 1/4
You want to get a common denominator to add fractions. The least common denominator is 4, so make both fractions into fourths.
1/2=2/4 , so
2/4+1/4=3/4
add this back to your whole number, and you get
15+3/4=15 and 3/4, or 15.75
