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

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
