To find out how many hours Carlos spent practicing piano, we need to add the amount of time he spent doing his math homework to the amount of time he spent practicing piano.
Carlos spent 1\dfrac{1}{4} hours doing his math homework and 1\dfrac{1}{4} as much time practicing piano.
Since 1\dfrac{1}{4} is the same as 1 + \dfrac{1}{4}, we can add the whole numbers and the fractions separately.
First, let's add the whole numbers:
1 + 1 = 2
Now, let's add the fractions:
\dfrac{1}{4} + \dfrac{1}{4} = \dfrac{1+1}{4} = \dfrac{2}{4}
Since the fraction \dfrac{2}{4} can be simplified, we need to simplify it by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2:
\dfrac{2}{4} \div \dfrac{2}{2} = \dfrac{1}{2}
Therefore, Carlos spent a total of 2 + \dfrac{1}{2} hours practicing piano.
So, Carlos spent 2\dfrac{1}{2} hours practicing piano.
