  4 1/12
  
  Step-by-step explanation:
  
  Let’s go through this.
  
  First, we have to find a common denominator.
  
  The LCM of 3 & 4 is 12, so we’re using that as the denominator.
  
  The new fractions are 2 4/12 and 1 9/12.
  
  Add 9/12 + 4/12 and you get 13/12, if you simplify its 1 1/12
  
  Now add (2+1) + 1 1/12 and you get the final answer of 4 1/12.
