Answer:

the cat now weighs 13 3/8 LBS

Step-by-step explanation:

convert the fractions so you can add them together,  

mult 3/4 by two to get common denominators

6/8 + 5/8

the cat gained 11/8 pounds. (1 3/8)

since the numerator is larger we add the mixed number to the 12 pounds.

13 3/8 pounds.
