So find totals

noon=1/2 of 3+3/4 of 3+1+1/3 of 2+1

'of' in math means multiply

1/2 times 3+3/4 times 3+1/3 times 2+1

pemdas

no parenthasees or exponents so multipictaion

1/2 times 3=3/2

3/4 times 3=9/4

1/3 times 2=2/3

equation is now

3/2+9/4+2/3+1

convert bottom number to same number (Find least common multipule (12))

3/2 times 6/6=18/12

9/4 times 3/3=27/12

2/3 times 4/4=8/12

1=1/1=12/12

18/12+27/12+12/12+8/12+12/12 = (18+27+12+8+12) / 12=77/12=72/12+5/12=5+5/12=5 and 5/12

it depends if you count gravy as solid food

if it is then the answer is 5 and 5/12 oz

if it isn't then the answer is 4 and 5/12 oz
