You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(\frac{6}{5} + \frac{9}{4}\)

MathBot Answer:

\[ \frac{6}{5} + \frac{9}{4} = \frac{69}{20} = 3.45 \]

The sum can be computed by rewriting each term over a common denominator, where the least common denominator of \(\frac{6}{5}\) and \(\frac{9}{4}\) is \(20\). \[ \begin{aligned} \frac{6}{5} + \frac{9}{4} &= \frac{6 \cdot 4}{5 \cdot 4} + \frac{9 \cdot 5}{4 \cdot 5} \\ &= \frac{24 + 45}{20} \\ &= \frac{69}{20} \end{aligned} \]
