<u>Proportions and Fractions
</u>
A proportion is expressed as a fraction a/b, where a and b are compared by division. If a=b, the proportion (or ratio) equals 1, if a<b, the ratio is less than 1, and if a>b, the ratio is greater than 1. The proportion of elements of a set to the total number of elements of the set is less than one, and the sum of all them equals 1.
We know 3/8 of Carl's rock collection are quartz and 1/3 are granite. If both subsets of rocks are mutually exclusive or disjoint (cannot happen simultaneously), then the proportion of both is the sum of the fractions.

Answer:
c=23/24
Step-by-step explanation:
c+3/8=1/1/3
c+3/8=4/3
c+9/24=32/24
c=32/24-9/24
=23/24
