Question

What is 5/8 + 3/4 because I am doing fractions right know

Answer 1

`(5)/(8) + (2)/(4)`

Denominators should be of same numbers


`(5)/(8) + (3~multiply~by~2)/(4~multiply~by~2)`


`(5)/(8) + (6)/(8)`


`(11)/(8)`


`1(3)/(8)`

Answer 2

`(5)/(8) + (3)/(4) =`


So,
`(5)/(8) + (3)/(4) * (2)/(2) = (5)/(8) + (6)/(8) = (11)/(8)`

Simplified as mixed number equals to
`1 (3)/(8)`

(Keep in mind that the LCM was 8.)
