\[ 1 + \frac{4}{100} = \frac{26}{25} = 1.04 \]

The sum can be computed by rewriting each term over a common denominator, where the least common denominator of \(\frac{1}{1}\) and \(\frac{4}{100}\) is \(100\). \[ \begin{aligned} 1 + \frac{4}{100} &= \frac{1 \cdot 100}{1 \cdot 100} + \frac{4 \cdot 1}{100 \cdot 1} \\ &= \frac{100 + 4}{100} \\ &= \frac{104}{100} \\&= \frac{26}{25} \end{aligned} \]
