Question

Eddie is fishing. He has 1 1/4 ounces of weight on his line, but his bait isn’t getting to the bottom of the lake. Eddie adds another 1/4-ounce weight to the line, but it's still not enough. Finally, Eddie adds a 3/4-ounce weight and the bait sinks. How much weight does Eddie now have on his line?
