Answer:

[tex]\sf 2 \frac14 \ cups[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the amounts together:

[tex]\sf \implies \dfrac24+1+\dfrac34[/tex]

Convert the whole number 1 into a fraction with denominator 4:

[tex]\sf \implies \dfrac24+\dfrac44+\dfrac34[/tex]

As all the denominators are the same, we can simply add the numerators:

[tex]\sf \implies \dfrac{2+4+3}4[/tex]

[tex]\sf \implies \dfrac94[/tex]

Finally, convert the improper fraction into a mixed number:

[tex]\sf \implies 2 \frac14 \ cups[/tex]

Add all

[tex]\\ \rm\rightarrowtail \dfrac{2}{4}+\dfrac{3}{4}+\dfrac{4}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \rm\rightarrowtail \dfrac{2+3+4}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \rm\rightarrowtail \dfrac{9}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \rm\rightarrowtail 2\dfrac{1}{4}cups[/tex]
