Question

What’s the answer?????????

Answer 1

Answer:

7 1/24

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to get the fractions to have the same denominator. So, you take 2/3 and 3/8 and find the smallest number by multiplying for the denominator. That number is 24 because 3 times 8 is 24 and 8 times 3 is 24.

Then, you multiply both the denominator and the numerator by the number that you got for the fractions. 2 * 8 = 16   3 * 8 = 24.    3 * 3 = 9   8 * 3 = 24. So, that gives you 16/24 and 9/24. Now since they have the same denominator you can add them.

This gives you 25/24 which equals 1 1/24.

Next, you can add the whole numbers. That is 6.

Lastly, take your fraction answer and your whole number answer and you get 7 1/24.

I hope this helps! =)
