A line plot (in cups) shows 2 at 14\tfrac{1}{4}, 1 at 12\tfrac{1}{2}, 1 at 34\tfrac{3}{4}. What is the total amount of liquid?

Multiply each value by its count, then add: total =74= \tfrac{7}{4}.

Four beakers hold 12\tfrac{1}{2}, 12\tfrac{1}{2}, 14\tfrac{1}{4}, and 34\tfrac{3}{4} liters. If the liquid is shared equally among the 4 beakers, how much is in each?

Total =12+12+14+34=2= \tfrac12+\tfrac12+\tfrac14+\tfrac34 = 2 liters. Shared among 4: 2÷4=122 \div 4 = \tfrac12.

A line plot shows the lengths of ribbons in inches: 3 ribbons at 18\tfrac{1}{8} and 1 ribbon at 58\tfrac{5}{8}. What is the total length of ribbon?

3×18+58=38+58=88=13 \times \tfrac{1}{8} + \tfrac{5}{8} = \tfrac{3}{8} + \tfrac{5}{8} = \tfrac{8}{8} = 1 inch.
