Answer 1

The answer is B.

In order to add the two values together, you must find the least common multiple for the denominators. The denominators are 8 and 4, and the least common multiple of 8 and 4 is 8. Because you have to multiply 4 by 2 to get 8, you must also multiply 3 by 2 to get 6. This will give you 6/8.
