Answer 1

Okay, this is really easy:) He goes 3/8 miles and 1 and 3/8 miles. to add this together you just go across the top. Discard the 1 for a couple of seconds. so you have 3/8 + 3/8. Now go across the top so you get 6/8. simplify that, (divide by a common number, don't know if you know that or not) so, 2 in this case. you get 3/4. Your answer is 1 and 3/4. Hope this helps and isn't ridiculously confusing:) <span />

Answer 2

Simple....

you have $\frac{3}{8}$ and $1 \frac{3}{8}$

It's asking you how much Bobbi skated altogether.

So...just add...

to make it easy...see this way...

$1 \frac{3}{8}$
+
  $\frac{3}{8}$

You can see it's just $\frac{3}{8} + \frac{3}{8}$

=$\frac{6}{8}$

Simplifying it...

=$\frac{3}{4}$

Thus, your answer... $1 \frac{3}{4}$
