step 4 Write the fractions 9/4 and 7/11 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 9/4 + 7/11
= [(9 x 44)/(4 x 44)] + [(7 x 44)/(11 x 44)]

step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 99/44 + 28/44

step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/44 x (99/1 + 28/1)
= 1/44 x (99 + 28)

step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/44 x 127
= 127/44
9/4 + 7/11 = 127/44
