Question

1/9+29/8 what is the answer? ps: i need to show my work

Answer 1

1/9   =   1.11
29/8 = 3.63
           -------
           3.73  = 269/72

or....
1/9    >>>      8/72     (72 is the common denominator)  (Multiply the N and D by 8)
29/8  >>>  261/72     (72 is the common denominator)  (Multiply the N and D by 9)
                 -------------
                 269/72

Answer 2

$\displaystyle {\frac{1}{9}}^{(8} + {\frac{29}{8}}^{(9} = \\ \\ \\ \frac{8}{72} + \frac{261}{72 }= \bold{\frac{269}{72} }$
