This is basically saying how much of the pizza did Tashia and Jay both ate, thus combining their portions together.

1/3 + 3/8 = fraction of pizza eaten

To add fractions, you must have a common denominator. Which is 24 in this case because 3*8 = 24.

So you multiply 1/3 with 8 and multiply 3/8 with 3.

1/3*8= 8/24
3/8*3= 9/24

Now you add the fractions.
8/24+9/24= 17/24. You add the numerator, the denominator stays the same.

17/24 of the pizza was eaten.

lisov135 [29]
The question is asking what v_final is, given that v_initial is at 300 feet. and v_initial is at 0 feet.  
We know there will be a constant downward acceleration of 32.15 ft/s^2.
 Use the following equation: 
 v_final^2 = v_initial^2 + 2ah
 v_final^2 = (160 ft/s)^2 + 2(-32.15 ft/s^2)(300 ft) = 6310 ft^2/s^2
 v_final = (6310 ft^2/s^2)^1/2 = 79.4 ft/s.
